How the idea for the app was born

I'm a dog owner and walk my dog every day. One evening, I wanted to invite a friend to join me for a walk. Her response came instantly:

Better not — the wild boar are already out there.

She couldn't actually know that for sure. But many people share that worry — especially dog owners. That's when I asked myself:

What if you could see right away where wildlife was last spotted?

If walkers share their observations, others can instantly see:

  • where wildlife is currently active
  • which paths to avoid
  • where it's currently quiet

That's how the idea for the Wildtier-Sichtungen app was born. From the start, it was important to me: quick reporting, no registration, no complicated features.

The app has spread surprisingly fast — because so many people know the same problem.

Help out by reporting your sightings. Together, we're building a map that helps everyone keep track of wildlife.
