Changemakers: Battle for the bears
Manage episode 388339413 series 2801302
In April 2023, Andrea Papi became the first Italian in 150 years to be killed by a bear. Mauled while jogging, he became an unwitting victim of a well-meaning EU-funded rewilding program designed to reintroduce bears to the Italian Dolomites. This podcast explores where responsibility lies for his death and how it has exacerbated a growing divide in Italy and beyond about the wisdom, safety and management of rewilding large carnivores.
Presenter: Johannes Pleschberger
