In Europe, wolves are under threat due to the revenge of the head of the European Commission
The EU will allow wolf hunting from March 7, 2025. Predation attacks on livestock were cited as the cause.
The Berne Wildlife Convention's Standing Committee has adopted a proposal to downgrade the animals' status from “strictly protected” to “protected”.
The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, whose domestic pony was killed by a wolf that entered the estate in 2022, became one of the initiators of the campaign to change the status of these predators and warmly supported the decision.
