On an anti-wolf mission, Commission ignores science and law

Research output: Online publication or Non-textual form › Web publication/site › Professional

Abstract

The European Commission wants to strip wolves of their strictly protected status under the Habitats Directive. Its amendment proposal to achieve this portrays curious flaws, procedurally and substantively. It also seems to signal a relapse towards old-fashioned anthropocentrism.
