Wild – Colorful Families on The Veluwe

He worked more than two years on it. Almost every day he went with his team into the forest – waiting, waiting and waiting for that one shot. When the young foxes were born. When mother boar and her youngsters swam across a fens. Or when an adult fox was hunting boar piglets. The movie "Wild" is a true sensation!

The Big Five of the Hoge Veluwe

Spotting wildlife in The Netherlands? You can. In our backyard. With a little patience, you can spot them all. The red deer is the largest of the five. During mating season, male deer make a roaring sound. This is called bellowing. A spectacle to witness. The Big Five are completed by the wild boar, the roe deer (correct spelling!), the badger and the fox. We challenge you. If you can spot every member of the Big Five in the flesh, we will treat you to a weekend at Park Berkenrhode.
