It amazes me, that our good ol´ Bachmann makes the headlines in LA. He´s the german equivalent of your Ron Gillet! At the moment he´s teaming with a few of his buddies from Russia and Finland to form the the german anti-wolf-coaliton!
It amazes me too — and Bachmann, like Gillet has a woman who stands up to him.
Actually they are two girls against him. These two biologist girls form “Bureau LUPUS”. Funding is scarce but they are dedicated and do an excellent job. Currently they try to radio-collar a few wolves. Not so easy here, you cannot use helicopters, beause of the terrain – and the costs would be prohibitive anyway. They maintain a website also but unfortunatly it´s in german language only.
Seriously, I can´t imagine how and why LA Times became interested in this tiny piece of information from the very last corner of our country. At least it´s well balanced and to me it shows through that they don´t take B. too seriously.
