From lunar landscape to animal paradise: Lusatia, in southeast Germany, is a natural wonder. One Paragraph: In the far south east of Germany lies a region full of opposites: Lusatia. On the one hand there are tranquil fishponds and rare animals like European otters, great bitterns and elk. But only a few kilometres away, a seemingly lifeless lunar landscape! Decades of brown coal mining in the region have left behind giant slag heaps and over-acidic mine lakes. Nowhere else in Germany has the landscape been so extensively and radically changed as here, and yet: the wilderness is returning!
