Summary

With several wolf packs now established in the Netherlands, the return of this species to our country is a fact. The question now is what the potential range of the wolf in the Netherlands might look like in the long term, and how large the wolf population might become. This report answers these questions based on a data-driven modelling analysis of habitat suitability for wolves in the Netherlands.
