In Trentino, a popular donkey fell victim to a bear attack. Particularly explosive: the enclosure is only 20 meters away from a playground.

The owner eventually found the animal dead - apparently killed by a bear. It is now up to the foresters to identify the animal and assess what danger it could pose.. Attacks on people by bears and wolves are extremely rare, but predators still come dangerously close to people. This was made clear at the beginning of the year by the case of a wolf in Val di Fassa that came into close contact with a mother and her child. The death of a jogger from aBear attack in 2023 sparked great consternation and debate about the coexistence of large carnivores and humans in the province of Trentino.. The donkey “Olmo” from Sopramonte, a district of the provincial capital Trento, was so much a part of the community that a festival was even held in his honor. The residents are not only concerned because of Olmo's tragic death.
