Spanish Wolves?

The wolf debate has spread to Spain. Spanish sheep farmers are mostly unhappy wolf hunting has now been banned north of the Duoro river (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/mar/06/spanish-farmers-deeply-split-as-ban-on-hunting-wolves-is-extended). These farmers were generally relaxed, when the ban only applied in the South, where the wolf currently doesn't roam. A minority of farmers believe they can co-exist with wolves but it is difficult to have a balanced debate in this area. Sometimes, fears (realistic or not) carry the day. Conservation and farming are often difficult bedfellows.
