Conferences and training
improving and passing on knowledge about predators
My job as a transhumant shepherd and breeder has led me to become fully involved in the issue of the wolf. Using my observations and experience in the field, I approach the matter from a technical angle. My training courses and conferences are designed to share knowledge and create an opportunity for dialogue. I focus on the impact of predation and the protection methods available.
Group training courses
My group presentations introduce the biology of the wolf, its behaviour, its role in ecosystems and its habitat, to give a better understanding of the conditions for its return to France. They provide an understanding of the situation of livestock farmers and the impact of the predator's presence on their herds. They assess the risks of predation and look at the protective measures that can be implemented to reduce the vulnerability of domestic animals. In particular, they develop the role and behaviour of livestock guardian dogs, as well as the conduct and gestures to adopt to avoid disrupting their work. My courses take place in the classroom or on the mountain pasture.
