European Alliance for Wolf Conservation @EuropeforWolves
A Platform of NGO's from different European states advocating for the full protection of the wolf throughout Europe and the end of all hunting of the species.Joined December 2017
Happy International Wolf Day! 🐺
Wolves are essential for our ecosystems but coexsitence with predators can be a challenge. Research has shown that the hunting of wolves is ineffective or even counterproductive and instead non-lethal preventive measures are the true solution.
If animal protection is important to you, it is time to make your voice heard!
The EU elections will be held this Sunday and by voting we can have a European Parliament committed to the protection of wolves and all wild animals.

Time to bust the hunting myths that have created so much suffering on wild animals.
Hunting of large carnivores is ineffective and even counterproductive to reduce conflicts with farmers.
The true effective and responsible way is for farmers to protect their animals.
The trophy hunting of wolves and other carnivores done in Scandinavian countries is unnatural selection with serious consequences such as the weakening of the genetic health of the target populations.
Studies on brown bears in Scandinavia, corroborate this. Check the full report.
Myth: "Trophy hunting supports species conservation"
Fact: Trophy hunting negatively impacts populations of endangered and protected species
The direct exploitation of animals is one of the main drivers of species extinction. bit.ly/4cGoV5j@FACEforHunters
Ecologists calculate that Scotland has space for 50 to 94 wolf packs. Wolves, will produce many environmental benefits, chiefly reducing the 2m deer that are living at a far higher density than in any other European country. @guardiantheguardian.com/environment/20…
Poaching of wolves is a very big problem in Scandinavia. Between 30 and 50 percent of wolf mortality is due to poaching. So far authorites have not taken this seriously. This should receive international media attention. @guardian
A new record: researchers have verified that the male gray wolf known as GW1909m coming from the northern German municipality of Nordhorn reached the Pyrenees Mountains in northeastern Spain's Catalonia walking 1,240 kilometers away from its birthplace. hs.fi/ulkomaat/art-2…
Lethal management of wolf populations have negative animal welfare implications and are ineffective and even counterproductive for preventing livestock predation.
Protection of domestic animals is the responsible way forward @vonderleyen.

This irresponsible proposal from @EU_Commission to lower the wolf protection is not based either on scientific evidence or public opinion.
"The proposal reflects a strategic, opportunistic and political move".

Without any scientific justifications and motivated by personal reasons @vonderleyen proposes to change the status of wolves from ‘strictly protected' to ‘protected'.
This proposal should be rejected. ec.europa.eu/commission/pre…
The narrow interests of the hunting and farming lobby groups do not represent the majority of EU citizens. @vonderleyen
Without wolves and other carnivores our nature is out balance. Let´s celebrate the return of wolves in Europe!

A survey recently published by @Act4AnimalsEU clearly shows that people in rural areas are in favor of coexistence with wolves.
Those calling for the hunting of wolves are the farming and hunting lobbies which do not represent the majority of EU citizens. @vonderleyen

"The probability of a predator attack is so low that it cannot even be quantified." Luigi Boitani, professor of zoology at the Sapienza University of Rome and president of the Large Carnivore Initiative for Europe.

The EAWC sent a letter to president @vonderleyen with the facts about wolf conservation in Europe.
We request for the protection status for the wolf to remain as it is today.
The way forward is science-based coexistence not political scapegoating.
