The Finnish wolves on the news 20.11.2018
The wolf is marching back into western Europe. Now it has reached the tiny Baltic islands of Aland. It is protected by EU law – but who’s protecting the locals?
The Finnish wolves on the news
Together with other European countries, Finland is committed to halt the loss of natural diversity by 2020. As conservation of biodiversity has become a global issue, efforts have been made to restore wolf and other predator populations that were exterminated in the past. Unfortunately the current wolf population in Finland is extremely low (150-180 individuals left) and this has received wide attention from the Finnish and international media such as YLE, The Guardian, AP, The New York Times, Deutsche Welle, and many others.
