Anyway I do think that wolves can be hunted without it necessarily affecting their population. There are no scientific grounds for prohibiting wolf hunting. I could say I do not like wolves to be hunted but there are no scientific arguments to back this. A well-known Spanish biologist, Miguel Delibes, son of the writer, always says that the wolf s main enemy is the wolf. This is very true.
Wolves cause considerable damage to cattle and bring upon themselves a lot of adverse passion.
You really have to go out into the countryside to find out just to what extent some of the local people are against wolves. I believe it is necessary that measures exist so that this hatred can be limited and, in some cases, so that particularly harmful populations may be controlled. You are a member of the Brown Bear Foundation which has as its main concerns the protection of bears and also of wolves in Spain. Most of them are based at the universities of Oviedo and Cantabria. The organisation was created to complement the activities of the Government towards conservation of bears in Spain.
