Fidenza Wolves Observatory


Osservatorio Lupi Fidenza (OLF) is a group of WWF Parma volunteers: we donate our free time and a lot of energy to this activity, which rewards us with great satisfaction. We are united by our passion for the environment, for nature, for wild animals and for the wolf in particular.

We collect data on the presence of wolves in our territory. We organize the data in a structured way and share it with the Wolf Apennine Center. We also organize events to provide accurate information about wolves.

Making people aware of the environment and animals, fighting misinformation about wolves to promote coexistence. These are our only ambitions, and we do this through the videos we publish on our social media and the events we organize every year in Fidenza and Salsomaggiore, inviting university professors, intellectuals, and technical experts in the field, from whom we all always have something to learn.

Our motto is: “If many people of little importance, in many places of little importance, did things of little importance, the face of the earth would be different.”
