Should hunters fear the wolf? Effects of wolf recolonization on ungulate harvests in a multi-species European landscape

2026-02-10

Abstract excerpt

1. The recolonization of European landscapes by the gray wolf Canis lupus raises questions about the ecological effects of predators and their impact on human interests such as large-game hunting bags, leaving room for alarmism among hunters. 2. We investigated the impact of wolf on recreational hunting by using long-term (2006-2023) and high-resolution (234 hunting districts) hunting bag data on four species of w...
