What were the images of the wolf conveyed by sources during this period? What policies were put in place by the various states to combat this species, until leading to its disappearance in the early 20th century? And, finally, who were the wolves that populated our lands at that time? Finally, Julie will share with the public the results of paleogenetic analyses carried out on a dozen naturalized wolves preserved in partner museums, institutions and venues throughout Wallonia, a project that was a first in Belgium, at the crossroads of history and biology. We hope to see many of you at this event. Welcome to you all! Sign up
