If she has dogs- well for starters this likely wouldn't have happened given that dogs tend to ward off wolves- but my main point ..somebody confiscate them if she does , dogs are related to wolves after all.
I get what you're saying but humans literally are an invasive species by definition (a species living outside its original habitat because of human activity). We're just unique in that we're able to comprehend that and react accordingly.
I see that The Telegraph has joined the misinformation group (they are anti-EU so no surprise here). This might still fail to pass by the EU parliament, even if the EU governments agree on this.
Believing member states are voting for downgrading wolves protected status because Ursula's horse died because a right wing newspaper said so is what's actually bullshit . Common people. You fall for this bollocks still!
What's that? The biggest lobbier for wolf culling measures r from farmers who have been calling for tougher measures for a long time to protect cattle, the Ursulya headline is EU catcalling bullshit, yes i think your right, ugh club. Thank you for adding to the conversation. So thoughtful.
I have no doubt see does hate them. Not relevant though. 27 countries vote on whether they want to or not. Portugal ain't voting for it because there countiries upset Ursula's pony has died. Hungary aren't voting for in solidarity with her. It's for rural votes and farmers. She's irrelevant.
wah wah boo hoo some animals are dangerous doesnt mean you get to fucking kill all of them!!! didn’t multiple species go extinct because little pissbaby europeans couldn’t handle the fact that there were animals that could potentially hurt them out there?
No I'm pretty sure you kill wolves, that's why you're here defending killing wolves and saying you're a hunter. Either that or you're a poser who wants to kill wolves, which is worse.
It's about making sure that the wolves don't disturb people too much. The wolves will benefit from that, and can live undisturbed by people if this is the case.
Yeah that's really worked out for wolves in the past hasn't it? If you want to kill wolves cos you think people are more important just say that, dont pretend it benefits the wolves in anyway.
This attitude has never resulted in anything good for wolves. It’s the reason that they were eradicated in England. It’s the reason they’re endangered.
See, you just want to go out killing wolves. Put your gun down and fight them properly. If you can beat a wolf in a series of challenges of raw physical skill and endurance then I'll concede your point.
How would restoring the wolves' habitat to pre-dickhead human levels solve anything? Look, I can explain it to you, dickhead, but I can't understand it for you too
I really don't understand what's hard to understand about "Keystone species ". They aren't difficult to keep away if you give them space to live. Human entitlement and greed ruins everything for everything.
If you think UVL unilaterally made this decision following the loss of her pony and all the EU’s wildlife, veterinary and nature agencies weren’t consulted and involved in the decision then you are as unhinged and ill informed as a January 6-er
I left Bluesky immediately after this is felt like the kind of toxic shit one gets drawn into on Twitter and wasn’t good for me(!) 😂 I’m trying this thing again because Threads is rubbish for news and current events (hopefully my only engagements will be more positive now)
The poster literally said she’s “Letting people kill a protected animal because [her] horse died”. It’s pretty clear they think that this event is determinative in her thinking and but for it the decision wouldn’t have been made. You fucking clown 🤡
Not even Horses are equal it seems, I am sorry a beautiful Horse got killed but that is nature’s way and the Wolf only knows one way, but her Horse is no different from any other and to the Wolf fair game.
Humans are more dangerous than wolves but that does not mean that wolves are not dangerous. Try running at night and meeting a wolfpack. You can reason with humans, you are lunch for wolves.
Been stalked by mountain lions hiking Carbon and Black Star canyons at night. Also been stalked by crazed meth addicts in the same area. Was far more concerned by the tweakers than the lions.
No wolves in the area, but have encountered packs of coyotes and javelinas. They're adorable.
Should have pulled a fast one and told them the horse was killed by poverty so they would do something about it. (This is a joke, we all know if that was the case, they'd just hunt poor people.)

"A wolf hater is a high level EU official whose pony just got killed": cool new meme, pleasingly cynical, accurate
1. The source: they tend to print a lot of crap these days
2. The source: they hate her!
Nothing inherent about us requires poor stewardship of the earth. This is capitalism, not humanity.
We evolved here, with abstract thought. We are exactly as valid as any other living thing.

Hint: it's a whole number between 1 and negative 1.

Magical thinking.
Being able to track any wolf does not mean that you know where each individual wolf is. That contention was straight up stupid.
The ones that do will always be the exceptions from normal wolves.
