− | The Military Saves Germany's Wolves

− | In the 2000s, wolves were close to being extinct, but they bounced back and now they are steadily increasing. Surprisingly, military bases are to thank for this recovery. In Europe, "wolves were heavily persecuted for attacking livestock." This was one of the main reasons as to why their population declined so rapidly. However, laws were later on created and passed to protect the wolves. Scientists were able to identify the military as a factor in the increase of the wolf population because they "noticed that the first pair of wolves to show up in a new state always settled on a military training ground." The reason for this is because wolf mortality rates were very low in military grounds when compared to protected areas, since those grounds are closed off to the public and there really isn't a chance for poachers to catch wolves there. Basically, the wolves feel much safer in military bases, and so they initially go there to settle. There is more of a sense of protection around soldiers than hunters.
