Guten Morgen
Der Wolf schaut wo er leben kann und er ist geschützt. Und deswegen werden in den Gebieten in den er Lebensraum findet, sich Wölfe ansiedeln. Wenn ich mich recht entsinne gibt es in Italien in manchen Vorstädten Wölfe die in den Strassen nach event. Resten vom Spaghetti , Pizzamahl, etc. suchen. Spaghettiwölfe :-)
In Italien war er fast verschwunden, in den letzen 25 Jahren ist er in vielen seiner ursprünglichen Verbreitungsgebiete wieder eingewandert. Zwei junge ital. Wölfe sind in den Pyrenäen gesichtet und über Kotproben identifiziert worden. Ein bei Parma angefahrener junger Wolf wurde mit einem Sender am Halsb. versehen. Er legte über Ligurien, den Seealpen usw. hunderte von Kilometern zurück. Auf seiner Rückwanderung wurde er höchstwahrscheinlich in einem Wolfgebiet südlich von Turin von selbigen getötet. In Gebieten wo Wölfe sind leben weniger Füchse, das wirkt sich z. B positiv in den Birkhuhnbeständen aus...
In Italy wolf was threatened with extinction, so in 1976 it became a protected species, with the creation of protected areas, where the presence of ungulates was guaranteed for its nourishment.
The story of M15
In February 2004 a wolf, struck by a car near Parma , was treated and later released ( 11/03/2004 ), fitted with a radio collar with GPS.
He was called " Ligabue " as the famous painter but technically his name was M15.
He remained for a short time in the place where he was set free (Parma Apennines )
in early May, moving through the mountains at night, he crossed the road 62 Parma - La Spezia and the highway in the area of the Passo della Cisa, then he headed towards Liguria but he realized that the area was dangerous and so he came back .
In June he was between Lombardy and Piedmont.
In July, he went into the Po Valley but came back again.
In August he crossed the motorway again befor getting at just 4 km from Genoa.
In September , heading towards west along the Apennine ridge, he crossed the A26 and then the A6 Savona-Torino motorway in the direction of Cuneo.
At the end of September he arrived in the French territory , and for some time he wandered between the Mercantour Parc National , the Park of the Maritime Alps and the regional park of ValPesio , all areas where wolves have come back to severals years ago.
In February 2005 , after nearly a year of wandering and a distance of over 1200 km, M15 dies for natural causes ...
