BBc News : Germany welcomes wild bear return
I have personally noted an improvement in the return of wild species (e.g. birds of prey, wild geese...) since my childhood. It's good to see that bigger species slowly make their comeback too.
BBC said:A wild bear is roaming the German countryside for the first time since 1835, police in the Bavarian Alps say.
Seven sheep carcasses were found in Garmisch-Partenkirchen on Sunday, confirming the bear had entered Germany across the nearby Austrian border.

The region's environment minister said the bear was "welcome in Bavaria" and told people they had nothing to fear.
Austrian wildlife experts who have been following the bear's movements said it was unlikely to approach humans.
Hunters' associations welcomed the bear's arrival as "positive" but said they were concerned it might damage farm property.
