TL;DR: It is shown that roughly one-third of mainland Europe hosts at least one large carnivore species, with stable or increasing abundance in most cases in 21st-century records, and coexistence alongside humans has become possible, argue the authors.

TL;DR: Wolves in Germany needed less than two generations for adapting to the new conditions in the cultivated landscape of eastern Germany, and the diet composition remained constant during the last five years.

TL;DR: The general diet pattern of the wolf in Saxony corresponds with that found in the naturally occurring populations in Europe, and roe deer was clearly preferred over the other species.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the relationship between information sources, trust, and people's attitudes while accounting for factors like knowledge, exposure and socio-cultural determinants of respondents, finding significant differences in attitudes and knowledge about wolves as well as in the use and frequency of information sources between the two population samples.

TL;DR: A wolf-looking canid was found dead in Thy National Park (56° 56′ N, 8° 25′ E) in Jutland, Denmark in November 2012, and DNA from this individual and nine German wolves were genotyped using a genome-wide panel of 22,163 canine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers as discussed by the authors.
