A wolf killed the EU president's precious pony - then the fight to catch the predator began.
After being hunted to near extinction, wolves have returned to Europe. But when one killed Ursula von der Leyen's family pony, it ignited a high-stakes battle. Are the animals' days numbered?
Dolly, a pretty chestnut pony was killed by a wolf. Unluckily for the wolf, and perhaps for the entire wolf population of western Europe, Dolly was a cherished family pet belonging to the president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, one of the most powerful people in the EU. Last September, a year after Dolly's death, von der Leyen announced plans that to some wolf-defenders looked like revenge: the commission wants to reduce the wolf's legal protection.
Action had already been taken against Dolly's killer. DNA evidence harvested from the pony's carcass revealed that the wolf was an individual known as GW950m. This mature male wolf, which heads a pack living around the von der Leyen residence.

Currently it is used to store mangers near Amelinghausen. As a professional shepherd Mr. Rebre is pro-wolf and manages to keep his sheep safe, by following guidelines regarding fencing the sheep in that many amateur shepherds don't follow, which is mostly why wolves can even get to those sheep.

Goehrde forest where multiple wolf sightings have occurred. Kenny Kenner took me there looking for tracks or droppings of wolves, but there were none to be found. All three locations are within 3 miles of their hotel, which
basically is in the middle of the forest as well. As a documentary film maker Kenny has as many as 40 film cameras in the woods (during the summer) that have motion sensors and record wolves as they move through the forest. At the time of my visit
he said that there were only about 20 cameras installed. He talks people to these locations on his wolf walks/tours hoping to catch a glimpse of a wolf. Generally a group can consider themselves very lucky if they actually get to see any wolves. More often than not no wolves can be seen.
