Fireworks ban in Ludwigsburg: Protection for endangered night meat!

Ludwigsburg, Deutschland - In Ludwigsburg, a ban on fireworks creates increasingly changeable mood. The reason: The Nachtreiher, which has been breeding on the Amorinsel in the Schlosssee of Monrepos since 2023, needs special protection. According to Staatsanzeiger, this breeding site is the only of its kind in Baden-Württemberg, which makes the situation even more explosive. Nature conservation authorities have long recognized the seriousness of the situation and fear that fireworks could pass the night cret out and his chicks that have not yet been broken. Earlier observations showed that fireworks triggered panic reactions in these birds, from which they do not recover so quickly.

After all, the planned classical open air concert on July 19, 2025 will not be completely canceled, as the Ludwigsburg district office recently announced. But instead of the fiery degree, the fireworks are prohibited at the end of the concert. The decision results from a multi -month cooperation between representatives of the regional council, the city of Ludwigsburg and the district office, discussed a wide variety of options in order to carry out the fireworks in a safe place. All for nothing, because all variants represented a significant danger to the breeding bird. According to the website of the district Ludwigsburg would have to be accepted if the fire work near one Brutplatzes took place.

fireworks and its consequences for the bird world

fireworks are not only a serious threat to bird stock in Ludwigsburg, but also in many other regions. According to Virgin Court, the negative effects on bird world are often not anchored in public awareness. Large fireworks of waters take place in over ten cities every year, often near nature and protected areas. The high volume and unpredictability of these events lead to panic -like reactions in animals and, according to studies, can lead to a decisive reduction in their reproductive rates.

The realization that fireworks can even endanger the chances of survival of young birds, which is why nature conservation authorities want a good knack in planning the events. After all, the night seriesist is dependent on the protection of its breeding season to make ends meet. The disturbance of his normal lifestyle can endanger the survival of this bird species in the long term. Alternatives and noiseless light shows could be a solution here, as the bird station mentioned.

The decision of the Ludwigsburg district office is more than just a ban - it is a clear step towards nature conservation and shows how important it is to take into account the endangered wildlife. So while the concert has to do without explosive effects, it is to be hoped that the Nachtreiher will not be disturbed in its breeding season and can continue to linger at Lake Castle.
