Now I will introduce you to some of the animals that live in the Dumbrava Sibiului Forest.

I give you a tip, in order to be able to observe wild animals in the forest, you have to step without making too much noise. But be careful, if they feel threatened, they can become dangerous.

To get a better view of the wildlife, you can use binoculars.

Let’s get started!

The squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) is a mammal with reddish fur, which you can easily see jumping from one branch to another. It collects all day long acorns, jir, hazelnuts and nuts, for the harsh period of winter.

The Roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) is also a mammal with reddish fur, which with a little luck you can see around.

About the fox (Vulpes vulpes) you have surely heard from the story „The bear fooled by the fox” of Ion Creanga. It has bushy mustaches, pointed, short ears, directed upwards and exceptional hearing.

The spotted woodpecker (Dendrocopos major) is considered the sanitary of trees. It feeds on various insects. Surely, you’ve heard her unmistakable hammering before.

Listen to the spotted woodpecker!

The cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) is a migratory bird, which winters in tropical Africa and southern Asia. The interesting thing about this bird is that it does not breed, but the female lays eggs in the nests of other species of birds.
