The glorious summer evening invited us to hold an exciting outdoor event from the "Forest Culture" summer series. Together with our partner Parc Ela, we welcomed a dozen guests to the "Borki" event - protecting the mountain forest with sniffer dogs on the Lareschs playground in Savognin.
But the shooting stars of the evening were Alvin (8-year-old Münstertaler) and Voice (2-year-old Labrador). Their masters (Mario Lucchinetti, Bregaglia district forester, and Alex Hauser, dog trainer) came along with their sniffer noses and explained and demonstrated how they train their four-legged friends to detect bark beetles in the forest.
