Support for this resolution has been held with applause within the hemicycle. The PP has taken benefit of the meals waste legislation, which was voted on Thursday, to include a number of amendments on the final minute with the target of unprotected to the species, which has solely loved that standing for 3 and a half years, since September 2021. It will return to its earlier state once they allowed them to hunt wolves. Then about 100 specimens have been legally killed the north of the Duero, the quota allowed by the autonomous communities, whereas south of that restrict, was strictly protected.

The authorised amendments go additional and can imply not solely a return to the scenario earlier than 2021, but additionally open the door to additionally hunt the south of the Duero [antes se prohibía] Once Europe lowers safety within the Habitat Directive, one thing that can occur in a couple of months as a result of the process has already begun

It has been ineffective that the third authorities vice chairman and minister for ecological transition and demographic problem, Sara Aagesen, will enchantment on Wednesday to accountability for the reason that choices made with the species are primarily based on scientific info.

The Autonomous Communities with the most important inhabitants of Lobo (Castilla y León, Galicia, Asturias and Cantabria) have been instantly launched to attempt to reverse the scenario, and haven’t ceased of their declare as a result of they contemplate that the one manner that wolves and livestock coexist is with the searching of specimens, which have been decided with quotas yearly.
