Responsible for determining the cost of predation by wolves, bears and lynxes, LR MP for Savoie Émilie Bonnivard reported on February 23 on the effectiveness of public policies in this area.
The latter would be insufficient in the face of the rapid development of these animals, causing major damage to breeders, according to
Le Dauphiné Libéré.
The number of wolves in France would have increased from 194 in 2009 to 624 in 2020. In five years, the number of areas of permanent presence of the animal would also have increased by 200%, leading to a significant impact on pastoralism.
66 million euros in 2020
The amount of protection measures was multiplied by 23 between 2004 and 2020 to exceed 30 million euros.
According to the deputy, the overall cost for the public authorities amounted to 56.02 million euros annually in 2020. Not to mention the contribution of the municipalities, the departments.
The total cost would in fact amount to 66 million euros, 8 of which would be borne by the breeders.
