Let’s save the pair of wolves on the Millevaches plateau!
Wildlife

In a climate of misinformation and latent incompetence on the part of State services, the only two wolves on the Millevaches plateau are in danger of being killed. While they are ready to form a family from an exceptional genetic mix, the public authorities are only responding to the hatred of breeders by shooting at wolves. Let’s save these wolves from imminent death!

Two united wolves plagued by gunfire and government inaction

In early March and every night since, the wolf pair on the Millevaches plateau has been surrounded by gunfire. Yet no “damage” has been caused to the herds since November 2024…

This exceptional pair, which has been closely monitored by naturalists since last summer, brings together a male of German-Polish origin and a female who may be Italian-Alpine, or even the result of a mix between two lineages. Their union will give birth to a cub resulting from a genetic crossing between two different lines. This unprecedented reproduction in France could revive the lupine population in the long term. This is excellent news, at a time when permits to kill wolves are piling up and Europe has shamefully chosen to downgrade them.

As usual, the French government sides with the breeders, claiming that there is no pack on the plateau. Even though the photos show the two wolves together as a family. This over-the-top propaganda fuels the lies spread eagerly by the extremist unions. Their only wish is to have the canines killed. It was a close call for the male last summer: he was seriously wounded by a shot, preventing him from feeding for months. Furious at having missed their “target”, the lieutenants of louveterie and pests are waiting for just one thing: to annihilate him.

Will hatred and misinformation get the better of biodiversity?

Who remains deaf and blind in the face of nature’s feats and the intrinsic value of the beings that inhabit it? The Coordination rurale de Haute-Vienne… well, there they are again!

The union claims that the wolf, of German-Polish origin, was introduced by humans, and accuses the regional nature park and the French Biodiversity Agency. That’s nonsense! For the record, the animals of this lineage have been detected in several parts of France since 2017. It’s typical of these animals to spread throughout the country when they’re not prevented from doing so. Before casting aspersions, it might be a good idea to do some research, don’t you think?

Once again, breeders are crying scandal where there is none, preferring to reaffirm their devastating will against nature rather than take their responsibilities to truly act and protect their flocks. Because no, shooting wolves won’t necessarily reduce the risks. The only solution is to live together, as has long been scientifically proven.

Between the open incompetence of government departments and the calls to kill from their detractors, the wolves are facing imminent death.

We are contacting the prefect to bring him to account.

On Wednesday March 19 from 10am to 12pm, we’ll be in front of the Tulle prefecture to defend this couple. Join us!

March 6, 2025 will forever be a terrible day for biodiversity. Wolves have officially been downgraded in the Bern Convention, because Europe has submitted itself to lobbies with greedy and destructive wishes. But the fight for wolves and ecosystems has only just begun, and we will be, as we have always been, at the forefront of their defense.

A dark period for wolves and biodiversity as a whole…

March 6, 2025. That’s it, Europe went straight for disaster, biodiversity head first. Wolves have been downgraded in the Bern Convention. The European Commission had to wait until this date to propose its adaptation of the Habitats Directive accordingly. This will make them even more of a target for those who want them dead at any price.

Who has been rubbing their hands for weeks now, torpedoing years of wildlife protection efforts? Breeders, hunters and the public decision-makers under their thumb.

During an exchange between the Parliament and the Commission, MEP Valérie Deloge applauded the Commission’s decision and asserted the need to “reaffirm the primacy of agriculture and livestock farming over the ideology of rewilding, because without our breeders, there will be no more European food sovereignty.”

As for Lozère senator Guylène Pantel, she’s not ashamed to claim that “if one animal is slaughtered, that’s one less animal on the territory.”

Are these two lobbies fanatics not aware that, without wolves, there would be no viable ecosystems? They are ignoring science and the opinion of 86% of French people, who consider that these animals have their rightful place in nature.

Wolves are no longer strictly protected in Europe, sold out to the lobbies of leisure hunting and insatiable intensive agriculture. How far will the puppets of the European Commission go, doing their bidding and selling off our infinitely precious and fragile heritage? When will we see courageous politicians standing up to defend it and put a stop to a cowardice that is as destructive as it is disgusting?” Muriel Arnal President of One Voice

… but the fight for the cubs goes on!

Downgrading is coming into force in the Bern Convention, and certainly very soon in the European Union, but our warnings have not gone unheeded: our joint request for the European wolf cubs before the European Court of Justice has been accepted.

We have long been ready for this long obstacle course and will not abandon these wonderful animals, thanks to a colossal inter-associative commitment!

In Europe, as in France, we are ready to take legal action whenever wolves are harmed: from their scientifically unfounded downgrading, to the relaxation of conditions for killing wolves, to shooting orders with no legal basis, the list goes on and on, but we are relentless in our fight against these cruel and unfounded decisions.

On Sunday February 16, the crippled wolf that had been the target of a relentless attack in the Saône-et-Loire region for over a year was found lifeless. On Monday, the Chalon-sur-Saône public prosecutor’s office announced the opening of an investigation into the wolf’s death. Why? Did the autopsy reveal a possible act of poaching? We have requested access to it. And we’re filing a complaint against a person unknown.

He was the last wolf in the department. Since he was wounded in the leg in December 2023, he had survived with difficulty, still a victim of the obsession of breeders and authorities determined to finish him off. Our proposal to the prefecture to take him in had gone unheeded… In its view, it was clearly better to wait for him to die, one way or another. In mid-February, its wishes were granted.

But the story doesn’t end there. Yesterday, the Chalon-sur-Saône public prosecutor’s office announced the opening of an investigation into the wolf’s death. Why are the courts taking up the case? Has the autopsy revealed that it was not a natural death? Was the wolf shot illegally? Or worse, had he been cowardly poisoned, like others before him?

Wherever wolves are endangered, we counterattack

In the Alpes-Maritimes region, too, the authorities are stubborn. So much so, in fact, that they are extending the reinforced defense shootings, without carrying out any new examination of the situation. We have, of course, called for these measures to be suspended as a matter of urgency.

Nurtured by the powerful livestock and hunting lobbies, hostility to wolves is such that the European Commission has not hesitated to call for an accelerated adoption of the proposal to downgrade these animals. A lethal measure at a time when wolf populations remain fragile, and for which there is no scientific justification. We immediately made an inter-associative request, which was accepted. With our partners, we are now taking our arguments to the European Court of Justice. And we’re launching the European Action Wolves campaign to amplify the voice of wolf defenders throughout Europe.

Join the mobilization by signing our petition to put an end to the persecution of wolves.

Our inter-association request to the European Court of Justice has taken one step further: it has been accepted! With our four partners, we look forward to defending our arguments before the Court, so that Europe’s wolves can live in peace.

Now the fight for Europe’s wolf cubs has taken a new turn: our request, filed in December 2024 with four other European associations before the Court of Justice of the European Union, has begun.

When the European Union forgets about science to the detriment of wolves…

Too prompt to harm wolves, the Council of the European Union (EU) had underestimated internationally important reports and calls from the scientific community indicating that their population in Europe was not immune to significant risks.

As it happens, the lack of scientific basis for the downgrading of canids was also highlighted in a recent scientific report on the ecology and genetics of large carnivores, funded by the EU.

The European Union, caught in its own trap: what’s the point of requesting scientific reports only to end up not following them and not relying on the best available science? And then disregard the principles of proportionality and precaution, which are necessary for derogations under the species protection system?

…we fight back and are heard by the courts!

Along with our partners, we are delighted to see that our arguments have been heard by the European Court of Justice. What satisfaction to have the opportunity to defend our request against the downgrading of wolves before the EU Court!

The legal work essential for this request was made possible thanks to the Gallifrey Foundation, which donated the funding for the legal costs, and to the work of the team at the Luca d’Agostino law firm.

At the beginning of January 2025, the Prefect of the Alpes-Maritimes region extended the deadline for killing wolves in the department by extending the reinforced defense shooting permits of six livestock farmers. All without deigning to check that their situation still met the conditions for maintaining these shots with a tenfold effect. On February 26 at 8.45am*, we will be asking the Nice administrative court to suspend these texts, which we believe are blatantly illegal.

In France, any excuse is good for facilitating the extermination of wolves: from the irresponsible government’s position that cattle herds cannot be protected, to the numerous illegal decrees issued by prefects! The Alpes-Maritimes prefect is no exception, renewing for 2025 the reinforced defense shooting authorizations granted to six farmers in 2024. The problem? Apart from his perpetual wolf-bashing, he didn’t see fit to check that the conditions for extending these texts were still in place. And yet, the law requires it!

A prefect who issues shootings indiscriminately, flouting the law

The prefect of the Alpes-Maritimes region no longer even bothers to do his job. He is supposed to re-examine the particular situation of the beneficiaries before once again allowing them to shoot wolves from all sides: literally up to 10 shooters can target at the same time those unfortunate enough to venture near the farm animals.

Worse still, the prefect doesn’t care about the rigor required for derogations to the (still) strict protection of species. Indeed, he has not even made the effort to write specific recitals for each beneficiary: the decrees are virtually identical!

Over-indulgent with breeders and quick to harm wolves, he limited himself to a general affirmation of the implementation of protective means, without checking their effectiveness as it was his duty to do before extending the death warrants for wolf cubs and their families for the year 2025.

Progressive, gradual killing: wolves’ lives illegally taken

Those “likely” to attack the herds (which are then led to the slaughterhouse without the tears or cries of their owners) are supposedly killed gradually: first “gently” (euphemism) with three simultaneous shooters, then “violently” by mobilizing the equivalent of a combat group to assault them with gunfire. After all, wolves are still a protected species, and the last thing we need is to give the impression that the public services are out to get them. That’s a likely story!

As the Prefect of the Alpes-Maritimes region is abusing his position, it is urgent to suspend the effects of these orders. When the judge grants us a hearing to overturn them, it will be too late for the wolves already killed because of irresponsible decrees! Let’s not allow the massacre of animals that are precious in their own right, and that have their rightful place in nature in fact as well as in the eyes of the majority of French people.

Pregnant or ill? Wikie’s worrying weight gain at Marineland

Antibes Pregnant or ill? Wikie’s worrying weight gain at Marineland
Exploitation for shows

Since the captivity lobby confirmed the imminent departure of Wikie and Keijo to the Tenerife dolphinarium, the days have gone by with their share of news, both good (Agnès Pannier-Runacher’s mobilization for a dolphin sanctuary in Europe) and bad (the filing of permit applications to export the dolphins).

We are sending the Minister of Ecological Transition the factual and legal elements opposing this departure towards endless exploitation.

On this occasion, we also reveal Wikie’s strong weight gain in recent months – noticed by several observers, including Tilikum Spirit and whistle-blowers – and question her team about the reasons for it.

Is it an ongoing pregnancy? Until now, Wikie had never gained weight during the park’s annual closures. The only occasions when this had been observed were her previous pregnancies. Orcas’ gestation lasts 17 to 18 months, so the father could be Keijo, but it could also be her brother Inouk, or his other deceased son Moana. There is also the possibility of artificial insemination, or a health problem…

Has the government done what is necessary to ensure that Wikie and Keijo would be able to survive the planned trip? What would be the departure date? For the time being, the independent expert assessment we obtained in court has not been completed, and it prohibits any transfer.

So many unanswered questions. The future of the last two “French” orcas is at stake, and we’re doing everything we can for them.

We’ll be out in front of Marineland in Antibes again this Saturday, February 15. And we are in contact with our partners in Tenerife to take action in front of Loro Parque. We will remain extremely vigilant, in coordination with our French and Mediterranean partners.

On February 10, 2025, a broad coalition of NGOs, associations, committed citizens and public figures joined forces to create the European Action Wolves – #EAW campaign.

This initiative aims to prevent the downgrading of the wolves’ protection status, a decision voted on December 3, 2024 by the member States of the Standing Committee of the Bern Convention.

Urgent action needed for wolves

Although wolf populations in Europe are very fragile, they are subject to numerous culling and “regulation” plans. Some countries, such as Sweden, have not waited for the change in status to be definitively approved before sharply increasing shooting quotas for this species. Five associations, including One Voice, have made a request to the European Court of Justice against the failure to meet the implementation deadline.

From March 6, 2025, if nothing is done, wolves will lose their status as a “strictly protected” species and become merely “protected”, exposing these animals and ecosystems to considerable risks. We therefore have three weeks to act.

A citizens’ revolt to come

The campaign will kick off with a hard-hitting call-to-action video, widely relayed on major digital media such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat and YouTube. The video will carry a message from personalities from eighteen countries. Every citizen will be encouraged to get involved by following the instructions on our website EuropeanActionWolves.org. In particular, they will be invited to address the delegates of the member countries of the Bern Convention, as well as the various Ministers of Agriculture and the Environment, and finally the members of the European Parliament.

Throughout the campaign, content will be produced and distributed by committed artists, influencers, NGO partners and celebrities, enabling everyone to express their views and make the voice of science heard.

A serious and irresponsible decision

In an alarming context in which the 27 countries of the European Union, joined by Liechtenstein, Andorra, Switzerland, Norway, Macedonia, Serbia, Armenia, Iceland and Ukraine, have approved the downlisting of gray wolves, only five countries have spoken out against the proposal. These were the United Kingdom, Monaco, Montenegro, Albania and Bosnia-Herzegovina. Tunisia and Turkey chose to abstain.

However, a survey carried out in November 2023 among ten thousand people living in rural areas of ten European countries (Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, Belgium, Poland, Denmark, Sweden and Romania) revealed that the population of the Old Continent was largely in favor of protecting wolves and other large carnivores such as lynxes and bears. Indeed, 72% of those polled considered it essential to maintain strict protection for these species, which are vital to the balance of ecosystems.

In November 2024, no fewer than 693 scientists and wildlife experts voiced their concern and alerted the European Union to the danger posed by this decision.

Join the European Action Wolves movement!

Today, NGOs, associations and activists are calling on everyone to join the European Action Wolves movement. Together, let’s join forces to preserve gray wolves and, by extension, the biodiversity and ecosystems whose health is intimately linked to our own. Beyond their ecological role, wolves have an intrinsic right to life. This right is enshrined in the Bern Convention, but legislators have chosen to ignore it. This is why we must act.

To support and guarantee the success of this campaign, which you can follow on our social networks, we and our partners are at your disposal for any media collaboration.

Following confirmation that the orcas held by Marineland Antibes were to be sent even further from their parents’ Icelandic home waters to Loro Parque, in the Spanish Canary Islands off the coast of Africa, and that the application for export authorization would be submitted in the next few days, we are once again mobilizing for Wikie and Keijo. For the animals, against the government’s pretence, against the greed and cynicism of the captivity industry. This February 15, we’ll be back in front of Marineland.

Yesterday, it was confirmed that Loro Parque was preparing to “welcome” Marineland’s orcas. Alas, nothing really new, following the announcements by the French Minister for Ecological Transition (MTE). Despite the IGEDD report, Agnès Pannier Runacher had decided against Japan (late… if we hadn’t blocked the transfer of the orcas at the beginning of 2024, they’d be there) and had written to the Whale Sanctuary Project brushing aside the sanctuary solution with a wave of her hand, the opposite of the choice made by her scientific advisors… Today, the French park also confirms its desire to accelerate.

Why respect justice when you’ve got the executive in your pocket?

Clearly, Marineland and probably the Ministry of Ecology are wiping their feet on court rulings. As a reminder, the independent expertise ordered by the court and obtained by One Voice has still not been completed, and the ban confirmed by the Aix en Provence Court of Appeal on December 5 on transferring Wikie and Keijo anywhere is still in force.

If an application for a permit is made, despite the judicial ban, our lawyers are ready to challenge it.

Marineland Antibes, the Japanese dolphinarium or the one in Spain: no lesser evil for orcas to choose

They’d have us believe that Loro Parque, the place where four orcas have died in recent years, is a decent solution. Who are they kidding? What kind of animal welfare are we talking about when we send Wikie and Keijo to rot in these tiny pools?

At Marineland, the detained orcas are a family, there’s no conflict, and Wikie the matriarch regulates her little world (which is getting smaller and smaller…). At Loro Parque, on the other hand, there is a lot of fighting, and the orcas are aggressive towards each other. Morgan’s body bore 600 bite marks in the first few years after she was sold to the dolphinarium.

Aidan and Tekoa, the two surviving males there, will undoubtedly impose a violent hierarchy on little Keijo. Wikie, for her part, will have to reproduce with one of these aggressive males by way of mistreatment. She will be separated from her son for the first time, and won’t be able to protect him.

Well-being? An empty statement for those who thrive on animal distress

Marineland claims to have the biggest tanks in the world… So how can you talk about improving the welfare of orcas when you send Wikie and Keijo to rot in Loro Parque, which has smaller tanks? The underlying reason why the French dolphinarium wants to speed up the process is that it has let its infrastructures fall into disrepair: they are now 25 years old, and no investment has been made in them for years.

The captivity business is no longer profitable in France, and so much the better. But the Ministry of Ecology’s handling of this development is despicable. The Minister had announced the end of the shows: in Tenerife, the shows will continue. We were sold an end to captivity for this orca family, unique in the world, and instead of the solution chosen by the Ministry’s scientists, Agnès Pannier-Runacher takes the worst possible political decision. Wikie and Keijo are deeply loved. No one will forget.” Muriel Arnal President of One Voice

In France and elsewhere, One Voice will never stop defending these orcas.

We are mobilizing again in front of Marineland in Antibes this Saturday, February 15. And we have contacted our partners in Tenerife to take action in front of Loro Parque too.

Domestic animals

In May 2024, in a village in the Pyrénées-Orientales region, a dog was discovered lifeless, locked in an apartment. Abandoned by the man who had promised to take care of him, he lay there dying for dozens of hours before breathing his last. We will be at the Perpignan legal tribunal on February 14 at 8:30 a.m. to speak out on behalf of all animals victimized by irresponsible humans who treat them as mere objects.

Bored of his pet, he causes his death

On Tuesday May 21, 2024, gendarmes and firefighters were called to open a dwelling in Palau-del-Vidre, from which a pestilential odor was escaping. There, they saw no trace of the tenant, who had been absent for several days, but the decomposing remains of a dog. Terribly emaciated, the Malinois waited in vain for his owner to return. He died alone, of hunger and thirst, in excruciating agony. Alerted by our partner “Marina un Refuge pour Céret”, we immediately took up the case.

Identified after this macabre discovery, the person responsible admitted the facts. Due to “personal problems”, he was supposedly no longer able to look after his pet. And he doesn’t find it strange that he took no steps to entrust him to a shelter or even to a relative… Understand, he “didn’t have a car”. So what else could he do but lock him up in his home and leave him alone long enough for him to starve to death? Pick up the phone and ask for help? Too complicated, apparently…

A business with blood on its hands

Every year, thousands of dogs and cats are abandoned and slaughtered in pounds, where the humans who took a fancy to them when they were just a few weeks old rarely bother to come and get them. Buying a little ball of fur from the latest fashionable breed, only to get rid of it once it’s become too bulky and too expensive, is what consumers do when they see animals as accessories. Tragedies frantically fueled by puppy shows, pet shops and individuals selling litters online, often illegally. What is the government waiting for to take action against these deadly practices?

On Friday February 14, at 8:30 a.m., we’ll be at the Perpignan legal tribunal on behalf of the deceased Malinois, defending the need to ban pet sales on the Internet and all events that encourage impulse buying of dogs and cats.

Towards an end to the sale of dogs and cats in pet shops throughout the European Union?

In 2025, following a proposal from the European Commission, the European Parliament will vote to adopt several measures on the welfare and traceability of dogs and cats within the EU. We have written to them to express our support, and to alert them to the fraudulent maneuvers underway in our country to circumvent existing bans. We remain mobilized and continue to raise public awareness of the condition of cats and dogs in France and Europe.

While the initial text augurs progress, abandoning identification by tattoo in favor of electronic chips, imposing new standards on breeding establishments, banning mutilations for aesthetic purposes (cropping and docking), the first modifications proposed by the MEPs are also promising.

An end to pet shop sales, yes, but the excesses must stop

For the past year, we have been alerting public opinion to the strategies put in place in France, with the complicity of the Ministry of Agriculture, to get around the ban: “click and collect”.

Although in force since January 1, 2024, the law on animal abuse has been seriously misused. Completely contrary to the aim of the ban, this type of practice continues to be encouraged by sellers, who now encourage customers to buy animals on their websites and then collect them in store, like common everyday objects. We have asked MEPs to include a proposal to put a stop to this.

The scourge of online trafficking

We also supported the proposal to create a system for verifying the identification numbers of dogs and cats on online platform ads. These sites open the door to all kinds of abuses, from animals from “puppy mills” to unscrupulous individuals breeding their companions without authorization in order to line their own pockets.

Since we launched our fight against Leboncoin with our partner, several thousand illegal ads for thousands of puppies and kittens have been reported and removed, proving the scale of online trafficking! Several complaints have been filed and are still under investigation. We hope that this first step on the part of the EU will reduce the traffic, until the sale of animals on the Internet is banned altogether.

“Hypertype”: when ‘beauty’ becomes synonymous with suffering

For supposedly aesthetic reasons, some breeders don’t hesitate to push genetic selection to the extreme in order to “produce” animals with morphological characteristics that endanger their health. Bulldogs that can no longer breathe, Chihuahuas or Cavaliers King Charles selected for their big eyes and tiny skulls… much suffering that has prompted some countries, such as Norway and the Netherlands, to introduce legislation. The European Commission seems to recognize the problem, proposing a ban on hypertypes and their display at shows and exhibitions.

Violent training

Several years ago, we revealed the violence involved in training dogs for the ring with supporting images. Spiked collars, electrocution, strangulation… veritable torture sessions for the animals. In 2023, a bill was proposed to ban these coercive tools, but has still not been examined by the Senate. While the Commission’s draft text goes in the right direction by banning electric collars in establishments selling and keeping puppies and kittens, it is unthinkable to stop there. These painful devices must be banned everywhere, especially in dog clubs, but also in private homes.

The draft regulation is currently being examined by the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development. Members of the European Parliament are currently making amendments, before a first vote in commission at the beginning of April, followed by a vote in Parliament in May or June.
