Between 13 and 15 October, the coordinator of the LIFE Bear Defragmentation project participated in an international meeting on the conservation of large carnivores and threatened scavenger raptors in Europe, held in Teramo (Italy), at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Teramo. The meeting is part of the exchange and dissemination actions of the LIFE Pluto project, aimed at developing actions to combat illegal poisoning and its negative effects on bear, wolf and scavenger raptors in Italy. In this meeting we have been able to present the situation of the Cantabrian bears and the actions developed in the LIFE project to favor its conservation, as well as to participate in debates on the problem of scavenger species and poison, together with more than 20 experts from different countries.
