In France, the wolves have a lot of enemies. There are only 150 wolves maybe, but 1.2 million hunters.  And the farmer lobby is very strong and is  currently protesting against the presence of wolves. So the secretary of Ecolgy, Miss Chantal Jouanno, has allowed to shoot one wolf. This has happended 10 May 2009, and a female wolf, who was pregnant, has been killed. So they kill not only one wolf, but a few wolves with one shot. A female and his pups. Recently, Miss Jouanno was speaking out for a reduction of the wolf population just to do a favor to the hunters right now before elections. As there are only 150 wolves, this would be the end. However the wolf is protected under europeen rights. Please stop shooting at wolves in France.

Madame Jouanno,

par la présente, je vous délivre une pétition que plus de 1000 personnes ont signées. Nous sommes une communité mondiale et nous ne sommes pas d'accord avec la facon dont vous traitez les loups dans votre pays. Les tirs de loups ne sont pas acceptables dans les conditions fixées. Et le loup reste toujours menacé en France.
