What awaits you?
Tracking carnivores in the field, identifying signs of their presence, collection of samples for research on diet and genetics.
We will show you preventive measures we have implemented to reduce damage caused by bears and wolves with the aim of improving coexistence with local people.
In the evening the programmme will be enriched with fantastic films about wolves and bears and, with a presentation on our projects, we will give you the chance not only to look deeper into our work but we will also discuss how you, too, can help.
