Protocol for shooting wolves threatening herds will be “simplified”, announces Marc Fesneau. “We will have a shooting order by the end of the week, which is simplified in accordance with the requests that had been made by many breeders,” declared the Minister of Agriculture.

Representatives of breeders from the majority union FNSEA demanded a “radical change in the shooting protocol” to reduce the lupine population. After disappearing for a while in France, the wolf reappeared in the early 1990s.
