Pôvodnost' svist'a vrchovského (Marmota marmota L.) v Nizkych Tatrach [La marmotte indigène des basses montagnes des Tatras. The indigenous marmot (Marmota marmota L.) in the Low Tatra mountains.

Résumé

The author presents some less known information concerning the introduction of the marmot (Marmota marmota L.) in the low Tatra mountains in the second half of the last century and draws attention to reports affirming that the occurence of the marmot in the Low tatra moutains (western part, Mount Bumbier and Mount Prasiva) is autochtonous i.e. that the marmot occured there already before 1859, when it was first introduced in the eastern part of the Low Tatra mountains (Mount Orlova, Mout Kralova hola).
