Wolf pups that have been captured by hunters, or bought from zoos, have a second chance at life on so-called ‘Wolf Island’, and conservationists have a unique opportunity to observe them.

Vladimir Bologov has lived with and looked after the wolves here for more than ten years. They are still considered vermin in Russia and can be hunted all year round. It is part of his job to try and change people’s perception:

“They are not dangerous. I mean they don’t hunt people. So we can be more tolerant to wolves. And anyway, wolves are a part of nature so they are a very interesting object for observation and studies,” Vladimir Bologov says.




I'm sure some of the people (mostly children) attacked and killed during the last few years in various countries would have disagreed.

As for bears, 3 people have been killed by bears in Sweden these last couple of weeks.
