All kinds of animals live in the Leijpark. Permanent or they are temporarily guests. We were already allowed to receive the beaver and the spoonbill as guests, but more animals are migrating through the Leijpark. We know this because we find their tracks the next morning. An important surface where we find animal traces is the muddy banks of the Ley. Here we found a print of an animal that we have never found in the Leijpark before: the Badger.
More and more often, we hear in the news that badger castles and badger counts are stopping the railway. The number of badgers in North Brabant has increased significantly and it was only a matter of time until the first one would visit the Leijpark. Thanks to the footprints in the muddy bank of the Leij, we now have certainty. It is really wonderful that we can welcome this marten to our park!
