Carnivore Damage Prevention News, Winter edition

teaser

date:  20/12/2021

In the latest edition of CDPNews, the focus is placed on the relationship between wolves and horse. Although the economic damage of wolf predation on horses is low overall, it can have a major impact in certain cases and can be emotionally particularly important as the bond between horses and their owners is often strong. The topic therefore certainly deserves more attention. Horse owners need to be recognised as an important stakeholder group. The articles included suggest that wolf-horse interactions should be studied in more detail and possible mitigation measures tested, especially where traditional free-ranging horse husbandry systems are an important part of the local culture and economy.
