Wild animals caught on film by camera traps in Georgia [VIDEO]

Camera traps in Georgia’s national parks and protected areas are continuing to spot various wild animals in the country’s uninhabited land.

The latest camera trap videos were of deer, a brown bear and lynx in central and eastern Georgia.

This lynx – carefully surveying the camera – was spotted at the Vashlovani Protected Area in the eastern part of Georgia.

Meanwhile this large brown bear walking through crisp autumn leaves was captured on film by camera traps at the Lagodekhi Protected Area, also in eastern Georgia.

These three deer appeared to stare straight at the camera with their glistening eyes; they were spotted at the Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park in central Georgia.

Numerous photo traps were installed in Georgia’s protected areas to capture footage and prove that a variety of animals, some rare, lived in Georgia’s uninhabited areas.

Photo traps were also good tool to reduce poaching and recognise offenders. If the devices noticed illegal hunting, it recorded the image and sent it to the Administration of Protected Areas. This helped the national parks and protected areas to prevent poaching in the area.

Georgia’s wildlife and beautiful nature attracted tourists all times of the year, but particularly in autumn when the temperatures dropped and the falling leaves left the country bathed in orange and red-yellow hues.

The photos below were taken by photographer Dachi Mchedlishvili at the Lagodekhi Protected Area in the Kakheti region earlier in October.
