But it is true that in Germany 🇩🇪 the breeders

But is it true that in Germany 🇩🇪 farmers can kill wolves that prey on their animals? The answer is NO, and to clarify our ideas and carry out this brief study we went directly across the Alps where we found a valid interlocutor in Sven Erlacher, biologist of the Chemnitz Museum of Natural History and head of the @ wolf.westsachsen project on wolf monitoring in the Western Saxony which clarified the ideas on the latest legislative measures in the management of the wolf.

Lately we have been struggling to resume and collect

Lately we have been struggling to record and collect data on the wolves of the reserve pack that seems to almost avoid our video traps 😎 We were only able to ascertain the reproduction of the pack through a shot of LaPina (dominant female) where they were still clearly visible in August the nipples, indicating a recent lactation, but we have not registered the presence of puppies. When a few days ago we went to inspect one of the video traps that we hadn't checked for a long time, we had a nice surprise: an early September shot of a puppy. We also immediately made the rounds of other video traps with the hope of obtaining new information but we found several passages of adults and only one other shot, always of a single puppy, this time associated with Punto (dominant male) and another wolf. . Now we will have to wait a few days but we can't wait to do the next checks with the hope of being able to establish if the puppy is alone or if there are others. For now we can say with certainty that the pack has reproduced and that there is at least one cub. video: @danieleecotti made with Guard Micro - @ co.mitel_srl #iononhopaurdellupo #canislupus #canislupusitalicus #wildlife #nature #wildlifephotography #appennino #alpi #wild #outdoors #naturelover #wildanimals #wildernessculture #exploretocrea #teupitaliano #whatctyis wolf #wolfpack

At about 8/10 weeks of age the puppies come

At about 8/10 weeks of age, the cubs are transferred from the den to a quiet area, defined as a rendezvous site, a kind of "asylum" where the cubs await the adults engaged in hunting and patrolling the area. In this site the weaning and growth of the puppies is completed, generally until October, when the puppies will begin to follow the adults in their movements. In this video the puppies of the Mirtillo herd (Chiara and LoScuro) play in front of our video-trap. Video: @danieleecotti Video made with Guard 1 New video trap - Comitel #iononhopauradellupo

November 12-13-14 Wolf educational camp in R

November 12-13-14 Wolf training camp in the Ghirardi Nature Reserve in the Parma Apennines. Three days dedicated to the wolf and coexistence during which we will deepen the biology and ethology of this controversial predator, we will learn to recognize and interpret the signs of presence and we will meet the breeders Elena and Roberto with their protection dogs who will tell us about their experience. It will also be a 0 km field: we will move exclusively on foot and we will stay in the splendid ancient stone houses in the heart of the Reserve, where fireplaces and crackling stoves will wait for us on our return from excursions together with excellent local and organic food.

Stories of Coexistence - SOFIA & MATTIA shepherds in L

In August 2017 we had the emotion

In August 2017 we had the thrill of filming the first wolf litter born in the Province of Belluno over 100 years after the disappearance of the species from these mountains. At that particular moment, when the wolf was resuming its spaces in the Eastern Alps and Prealps, it was not at all obvious to be able to track down the new litters, and even more so in a difficult territory like the one concerned, rich in forests and valleys, and where the wolves probably used a large range. The great commitment of Francesco and Antonio, the volunteers of the association, has been repaid thanks to images like these, which today we want to dedicate to our friend Bepi Tormen, a researcher and a very experienced faunist who supported us in those days with valuable advice and who unfortunately passed away prematurely in September 2020. #iononhopauradellupo Video by Francesco Romito and Antonio Galletti ps. since many are wondering, the branch in front of the video trap was placed by the Jays during their operations :)

In the suggestive autumnal atmosphere of the Reserve

Collect it. Collect data on wolves through

Collect it. Collecting data on wolves through the use of video traps requires a great preliminary work which consists in exploring the territory over and over again in search of signs of presence to identify the areas of greatest passage. Once the main paths have been identified, you must also find the right point in which to install the video trap: there must be a suitable plant, it must not get too much sun (otherwise there are many empty activations) and preferably it must be in a place where many people pass by to avoid thefts. In short, it's a bit of a mess 😎 But when this series of combinations occur and we manage to place our video traps in the right places, then the results arrive, not only in terms of the many data we acquire on the herds we follow, but also for all the other fauna that we "capture", sometimes recording very beautiful and particular shots such as hunting scenes or simply purely nocturnal animals, such as badgers and porcupines, in daytime videos. So here is an extract of the most beautiful shots recorded by one of our video traps over a month in the Parma Apennines. Video: @danieleecotti #iononhopauradellupo

This spectacular scene was not shot at Y

This spectacular scene was not shot in Yellowstone or even in Alaska but in Abruzzo by his friend @raffaeleimondi who has been shooting wolves and bears (and more) with great passion and ethics. The presence of a carcass represents for both an important food source that the bear guards and defends to prevent the wolf from stealing it. Bear and wolf are two elusive and difficult species to spot even individually being able to observe them together and also interacting is an event that is difficult to witness and that deserves, without doubt, to be spread so that as many people as possible can see it.
