Animal protection organisation warns that EU proposal to downgrade wolf protection may set the stage for wider attacks on EU nature laws
From HumaneWorld.org:
BRUSSELS—Humane World for Animals Europe (formerly called Humane Society International/Europe) warns that a new proposal to downgrade the protected status of wolves could open the floodgates to more serious attacks on EU nature laws.
In the wake of the December 2024 decision of the Bern Convention to lower the protected status of wolves, the European Commission yesterday put forward a proposal to amend the Annexes IV and V of the EU Habitats Directive to downgrade the protection status of wolves under EU law.
