About

Wildpark Schwarze Berge is a wildlife park, presumably located in or near Hamburg, Germany, though the articles don't explicitly state its location. It's in the news because its director, Volker Lein, has publicly advocated for the release of a wolf that was recently captured in Hamburg-Altona after it injured a woman in a shopping passage. The wolf, believed to have gotten lost, is currently being held in a wildlife rehabilitation center in Lower Saxony. The incident is significant as it's the first of its kind since wolves returned to Germany. While authorities are considering options including releasing or euthanizing the wolf, Lein's opinion, as a wildlife park director, adds weight to the argument for releasing the animal back into the wild.
