Transhumance of sheep and goats organized in Lille-center on 19 May 2019
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
Français : Dans le cadre de la gestion d’espaces verts urbains par écopaturage (Ecopastoralisme urbain) la ville de Lille utilise en 2019 140 moutons et 10 chèvres, dans le bois de la citadelle, autour de laCitadelle de Vauban à Lille au printemps 2019, sous la Porte royale de la Caserne Bouflers et dans plusieurs autres espaces verts urbains. Le dimanche 19 mai 2019 une transhumance urbaine a eu lieu pour une partie des animaux (qui appartiennent à la société Ecozoone spécialisée dans le pâturage fixe ou itinérant, avec dans ce cas une « bergère» ses assisants et ses chiens).
Ces herbivores entretiennent la végétation d’une manière plus écologique que lorsqu’elle est tondue ou fauchée à la machine (par exemple les chèvres se mettent debout et mangent les feuilles basses des buissons et arbres, et les moutons broutent en accompagnant mieux le relief du sol, qu’ils enrichissent par leurs excréments) et lors des itinérances ils jouent un rôle de « corridor biologique ambulant », car en se déplaçant d’un site à l’autre, ils transportent des propagules de végétaux et d’autres organismes tels que spores de champignons, propagules de lichens, insectes et autres invertébrés, bactéries, etc. (les herbivores transportent ces propagules sous leurs sabots, dans leur pelage mais aussi dans leur tube digestif. Certaines graines ne vont germer ou bien s’enraciner qu’après être passées dans le tube digestif d’un herbivore). Ces animaux itinérants reconnectent ainsi des milieux semi naturels relictuels, fragmentés et éloignés les uns les autres, contribuant à la connectivité écologique indispensable au maintien de la biodiversité.
English: In the context of the management of urban green spaces by ecopaturing ( Urban Ecopastoralisme) in 2019, the city of Lille uses 140 sheep and 10 goats, in the wood of the citadel, around laCitadelle de Vauban in Lille in the spring of 2019, under the Royal Gate of the Bouflers Barracks and in several other urban green spaces. On Sunday, May 19, 2019 an urban transhumance took place for a part of the animals (which belong to the company Ecozoone specialized in the fixed or itinerant grazing, with in this case a "shepherdess" her attendants and her dogs).
These herbivores maintain vegetation in a more environmentally friendly way than when they are mowed or machine-cut (eg goats stand up and eat the low leaves of bushes and trees, and sheep graze by better accompanying the soil, enriched by their excrement) and during itineraries they play a role of "walking biological corridor", because moving from one site to another, they carry propagules of plants and other organisms such as as mushroom spores, propagules of lichens, insects and other invertebrates, bacteria, etc. (The herbivores carry these propagules under their hooves, in their coat but also in their digestive tract.Some seeds will germinate or take root only after having passed into the digestive tract of an herbivore). These traveling animals reconnect semi-natural, relict, fragmented and distant environments, contributing to the ecological connectivity essential for maintaining biodiversity. |
