Wolf and dog depredation on livestock in central Italy

1998
We investigated wolf (Canis lupus)- and dog-livestock conflicts (1992-1995) and costs of compensation (1991-1995) in the Tuscany region of central Italy. The regional indemnity program cost US $345,000 (+/- 93,000 SD) annually. Most depredations (95.2%) involved sheep, with a mean (+/- SD) annual loss of 2,550 +/- 730 sheep, or 0.35% of the regional ...
