Against wolves we need more dogs. There aren't many other solutions to protect both wild animals and farm livestock. There Lazio region he therefore decided to immediately make over 50 thousand euros available for the purchase of more sheepdogs. The initiative is part of the activities planned by the council of Nicola Zingaretti "For the conservation of the wolf in Lazio and for coexistence with livestock activities", experimenting with prevention methods in regional protected areas and in Natura 2000 sites.
The project was developed with a council resolution of 1 October 2019, which has already led to the donation of 179 thousand euros to the natural reserves of Monte Rufeno, Montagne della Duchessa, Tuscania and Monte Casoli di Bomarzo, and to the natural parks Marturanum, Veio, Bracciano-Martignano, Simbruini Mountains and Monti Aurunci.
However, to livestock farms few dogs arrived to keep watch and therefore almost 52 thousand euros to buy more. It will now be necessary to see if man's best friend will be a sufficient deterrent for wolves (La Repubblica).
