Four days ago, Saturday 9 December 2017, two hunters have sighted a wolf within the Upper Garda Bresciano Park, whose territory includes nine municipalities for a total of about 27 thousand inhabitants. This is not a presence to be underestimated: it took place in the area of Valvestino, near a wood. The sighting is exceptional, although not as infrequent as one might think.
In the summer of 2016, therefore a year and a half ago, the sightings of the wolves had been different in these same areas of Lombardy. In addition, the Provincial Police often had to deal with sheep carcasses and organic traces to be linked to the wolves themselves. The hunters said they were sure that it was this species: the specimen noticed the men and fled shortly after.
In the Alto Garda Bresciano Park, many areas are uncontaminated, to the benefit of biodiversity. Sightings are sporadic according to the Mountain Community and for the moment it is not released no alarm between the population and tourists, but the attention must not be lowered even for a second.
