Truffle Hunting In Germany

Watch this television report on truffle hunting in Germany:

Doerte Ulka Engelkes is searching for wild truffles in German forests together with her companion Ayk, a well trained truffle dog.

In Germany all species of wild truffles and edible or non-edible hypogaeous fungi are protected by law and may not be taken out of the soil, though Germany is rich of all kinds of truffles. Only a few truffle hunters get a special permission from the government to go on truffle search for gathering scientific relevant data. Doerte Ulka Engelkes is one of those rare legal truffle hunters: together with her Lagotto, she collected already more than 40 different species.
