7. Wild Animals of Lithuania
Currently, Lithuania has approximately 250,000 “large” wild animals or 5 per each square kilometer. The most prolific large wild animal in every part of Lithuania is the roe deer, with an estimate of 120,000 of them. They are followed by wild boars, estimated at around 55,000. Other large species found in the area are fallow-deer, and the largest one, the moose. It’s estimated that there are around 7,000 wild moose in the area, and because there are not dwindling numbers of these larger animals, the government allows them to be hunted in order to control the population sizes.
