The wolf has arrived in the plains, and nutria are among its prey. According to experts, this factor could make the wolf\u2019s presence less problematic than one might think and, in some cases, even helpful in controlling a species considered invasive. Management, however, remains the key issue: rather than focusing on culling, the goal should be to monitor the animals and work on conflict prevention. <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The topic was discussed on Thursday, September 17, at the Giancarlo Ligabue Natural History Museum in Venice, during the final summer event of the \u201cAperitivi al Museo\u201d series, with a talk titled \u201cThe Wolf in the Plains: An Unexpected Return.\u201d The speakers were Mauro Belardi, a biologist and expert on large carnivores, and Mauro Bon from the Venetian museum. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The presence of wolves is no longer limited exclusively to mountainous areas. Their return to the Alps is traced back to 1992, and in 2012, the first pair formed in the Eastern Alps: Slavc, born between Croatia and Slovenia, and Giulietta, who came from the Apennines. From that pair, packs have developed that are now present in the Veneto region as well. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe shouldn\u2019t think of the wolf as an animal that lives exclusively in the woods and mountains,\u201d Belardi explained, \u201cbut as a very versatile species, capable of adapting even to coastal areas and the plains.\u201d Wolves have also been spotted in the municipal areas of major European cities such as Rome, Madrid, Ljubljana, and Milan. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":89,"featured_media":21920,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"give_campaign_id":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2007],"tags":[3230,3228,3227,1999,3229],"class_list":["post-21958","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-green-salus","tag-cohabitation","tag-history","tag-museum","tag-venice","tag-wolf"],"acf":{"categoria":[2007],"categoria_source":{"label":"Category","type":"taxonomy","formatted_value":[{"term_id":2007,"name":"Green\/Salus","slug":"green-salus","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":2007,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":34,"filter":"raw"}]},"sottotitolo_h2":"In Venice, there is talk of wolves likely arriving in the flatlands as well.
