They said it had rained and the grass was still wet

And less itchy.

They hide extremely well. Lots of places have them still after thinking they "got rid of all of them". Wolves are still a misunderstood species! Without wolves, coyotes and other predators we would be over run by critters that spread disease and/or destroy our crops.

Obviously. Also obviously little to do with quarantine. First confirmed and non-escaped wolf in a century in Belgium 3years ago, after the first one in Holland, and always been some in Germany (but not near France until recently).

Most of the wolves we've got started crossing back from Italy about a decade ago. So last I checked we officially had about 200 hundred in he South east region of the country. They've been slowly moving up toward the North West following natural pathways through less densely populated area like the Massif central (a small mountain range in the middle of France) and the Central Region which is also part of the "empty diagonal" (to give you an idea of how many people live there) (think tiny Midwest). Normandy is just North West of that so it's not THAT surprising that they should see one... but still pretty cool! (I'm originally from near-ish the Italian border and now live in the Massif Central and I've never seen one I'm a liiiiittle bit jealous ^^)

Possibly, but there are wolves in some other parts of France, so he could also have come from those regions.

there are wolves in Germany, so......

I was around the nesting sights once, and I totally agree. Any sort of man-made light will mess them up, including phones, when the sun's going down/night. The turtle nests are on the beach and surrounded by a little bit of fencing to tell people to not harm them, but of course there's gonna be that one jerk who wants photos or smth. People really mess up the beaches wildlife, too. I saw a bunch of people crowding a terrified little crab for pictures once, thankfully I kinda corralled the little dude back to the ocean because he was getting dried out and attacked by sea birds due to people.

I couldn't agree more!

Agreed humans are very self centered ignoring the fact we share this plant it. Covid-19 has been good to the other mammals on earth.

if only people would abide by that, they don't even want to do it to save their own lives

funny little things- didn't know they used doormats and wore slippers lol

They have become very brave here We were at Mums Headstone and some Foxes have been coming over to see whats going on they like to take things to play with very cute We have had Deer coming into the residential areas and lazing around on front gardens and walking round the streets

I have no idea why people downvoted you so here's an upvote

Actually, we are more dangerous to animals.
