Coexistence with large carnivores
Roll‑up version (27) ‑ 80x200cm
A Howl for Survival
This exhibition offers a better understanding of the Iberian wolf, the last great predator of our fauna. From its characteristics and habits to its distribution and habitat , the main threats to its survival are explored, and how rural communities interact with this predator and have adapted to its presence. Visitors will also have the opportunity to learn about the use of livestock guardian dogs, an excellent example of how, over thousands of years, humans have selected different canine breeds to protect herds from predator attacks, thus allowing coexistence with the wolf.

Coexistence with Large Carnivores: The Challenge and the Opportunity
This exhibition introduces the large European carnivores – bear, wolf, lynx, and wolverine – and the relationships that human communities establish with them. Its aim is to promote public interest in this topic and reflection on the path forward for a humanized Europe, which will have to relearn how to coexist with these charismatic species. The information provided covers everything from their distribution and feeding habits to the identification of the main causes of ancestral and current persecution: from ancient and modern myths to predation on wild and domestic animals. Original conservation projects at the European level are presented, highlighting the presence of these species in European culture and society.
