  2. Day 2: Search for brown bear signs and observation opportunities with Eleri.
  3. Day 3: Explore lynx habitat and look for recent signs, with an evening outing if conditions suit.
  4. Day 4: Search for wolf signs and learn about their place in the forest.
  5. Day 5: Return to the most promising areas as weather and wildlife activity allow.
  6. Day 6: Continue guided searches and discuss Eleri's conservation work.
  7. Day 7: A final morning at the cabin before departure.

Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed.

Eleri's conservation story

Eleri has founded several Estonian nature organisations, including the Estonian Large Carnivores Association (MTÜ Eesti Suurkiskjad). Her fight for Estonia's wolves reached the Court of Justice of the European Union and ended with a win at Estonia's Supreme Court. She did all of this without hired lawyers, together with a team of volunteers.
