Wolf hunting becomes sharp political issue in Europe
From ERR:
Wolf populations have almost doubled in Europe over the past decade. While their number was estimated at 11,000 in 2012, a recent count puts that figure north of 20,000.
Vivian Loonela, head of the Estonian Representation of the European Commission, described it as a success story of EU conservation efforts. But wolf numbers have now grown to a point where local governments have started to complain to the Commission.
