Ukraine Initiates First Wolf Protection Reserve: A Leap for Biodiversity Conservation
From BNN:
In a significant stride towards biodiversity conservation, Ukraine is taking steps to establish its first reserve specifically aimed at protecting the breeding grounds of wolves, a species currently facing neglect under the nation’s environmental policies. Despite being a signatory to the Bern Convention, which mandates the protection of various wildlife species, Ukraine has been an outlier in Europe by not extending these protections to wolves. This pioneering effort is led by the Kyiv Ecological and Cultural Center, spotlighting a crucial turning point in the nation’s approach to wildlife conservation.
