> Farmers only get reparations for proven wolf kills, meaning you need to find the leftovers, and have them DNA-tested. Of course. And this is done by two solid reasons. 1) Because farmers unavoidably will try to game the system to optimize the money obtained, until sucking your reserves dry. Europe could tell you about thousands of cases of corruption in this subsides. We could write a book with the tricks and plots. 2) Because a surprisingly large amount of those "wolf kills" are in fact killed by dogs. Feral and also domestic dogs. How do we know it? doing DNA tests. If your dog kills a cow, why should I be blackmailed to pay for it? Is your responsibility, not mine. Feed your f*ng dog, don't let it roam around at night, pay insurance, and keep it lashed when close to my animals. Even more, do you know who are the owners of those dogs in thousands of cases?, the same farmers that cry wolf. Everybody knows it in the village, nobody will talk because... hey! I have a very ill sheep and the vet bills would be expensive, can I borrow your mastiff? the morons in the city will gave us free gold!
