The cemetery will remain closed while the animals are captured, Basel’s Construction and Transport Department announced on Wednesday. The dates given are Wednesdays between January 31 and March 13.
The planned resettlements would again be carried out by the Fondation Franz Weber under the leadership of Claude Fischer, a nature specialist from the Haute école du paysage, d’ingénierie et d’architécture de Genève (HEPIA), it was said. The Federal Office for the Environment has examined the project and granted the relevant approval.
In addition to catching with gillnets, box traps are also used, according to the communiqué. The animals would then be transported in individual crates to Jura, where they would be tagged and released in predetermined areas.
In recent years, the number of deer at the Hörnli cemetery has increased significantly. The large population led to stress and inbreeding among the animals. In addition to hedges and fences, the animals also ate grave decorations, which was stressful for many relatives of the deceased.
Once the majority of the cemetery is clear of deer, new fencing and gate management should ensure no new deer enter the property. A corresponding opinion is currently being developed. Due to the expected costs, the Grand Council will make a final decision, the report said.
