Three days that flew by very quickly during the didactic workshop on the wolf in the Aveto Natural Park together with a motivated and interested group.

Some distractions and temptations during the excursions due to the abundant birth of mushrooms (Boletus edulis) that we have only photographed did not prevent us from finding numerous signs of the presence of wolves, footprints and different marking sites.
Prato Mollo in the Aveto Regional Natural Park, which sponsored the event, is a wonderful and truly evocative place, peat bogs, ophiolithic outcrops and immense beech woods, among other things host a population of rinselvatichiti horses: the wild horses of the Aveto that we were lucky enough to spot.
Thanks to Dr. Luigi Molinari who integrated the didactic part with a very interesting lesson on dog x wolf hybridization and the presence of wolves in urbanized contexts.
Thanks also to the Pratomollo - Monte Aiona Refuge who refreshed us with excellent meals.
And finally, thanks to all the guys who spent these three days with us sharing the desire to know and better understand the wolf and the relationship with man.
ps thanks to Milvana and Massimo for some of the photos posted
