The Genet is a little carnivore whose status is not very well-known in Vendée (France). The methods for a county survey about these carnivores are set out in order to get information about its presence. The results will make it possible to map out an atlas showing where it is located and where it lives.
Tracks and faeces of otter are abundant around the lac du Jaunay (Vendée) but this animal is very fierce and nocturnal. Nevertheless, an otter was observed in very good condition at midday, in June. It was fishing in a small pound near the lake. This note describes the behaviour of this otter.
