Forum – Wolf’s protective status is reduced: how do you think?

Date:

The subject of Wolf is not only controversial in Austria for a long time. Now the EU parliament has made the decision to downgrade the protection status of these special animals from “strictly protected” to only “protected”. The background is the strong increase in the wolven population in the Member States. What do you think of this decision?

The downgrade of the protection status makes it possible without intervals with the wolf supply of the respective countries without the previous obstacles, provided that the state of maintenance remains favorable.

This can be beneficial for the supporting voices for the cultural landscape; Here the ecological balance and the reference to torn farm animals are often the keyword. On the other hand, the fear that the risk of misuse of this regulation can be very high because of the easier “removal”. If wolves are hunted, regardless of the state of preservation, this can have a fatal impact on existence.

How do you see this change and in general the future of the wolf in Europe? In your opinion, what role does this specific animal genre generally play for the ecological balance in Austria? Do you think that the new regulation in this country will have a positive effect on agriculture and livestock farming? And what measures can in your opinion prevent this decision from preventing this animal? Let’s participate in your opinion in the comment area, we look forward to your messages!
