Barnier Aims to Kill More Wolves. Would it Help Farmers? - Prime Minister Michel Barnier advocates for increasing wolf culling to protect livestock, citing significant damage to farms, particularly in the Alpes-Maritimes where 772 wolf attacks occurred in 2023. He views this as a key moment to raise "culling capacity" and sees less ideological resistance at the European level. However, environmental groups argue that killing wolves destabilizes their packs, leading to inexperienced wolves attacking livestock instead of wild prey.
