Wolf populations are recovering and expanding across Europe, causing conflicts with livestock owners. We here compiled incident-based livestock damage data caused by wolves across 21 European countries for the years 2018, 2019 and 2020.
The file "wolf_damages_2018_2019_2020_complete_data_to_publish.csv" contains the following information per incident: country, target species, cause, number of animals killed/injured/missing, assessment level probability, reported date, number of days until inspection, location, incidentID, uniqueID, NUS1_ID, NUTS2_ID, NUTS3_ID, damage prevention measure, number of wolves attacking, latitude, longitude, comments, metadata constraints.
The file "nuts3_regions_and_LC_where_wolves_are_present.csv" contains information of the percentage of area occupied by wolves per NUTS3 region for selected land cover variables.
The file "prevention_measures.csv" contains information about the financial support of livestock damage prevention measure per country or NUTS region
The file "wolf_presence_now_vs_50_years_ago_nuts3.csv" contains information on NUTS3 regions that had a documented wolf presence 50 years ago.
The "scripts_to_publish.zip" folder contains the scripts that we used to conduct the analyses.
