Why is suddenly the nicest Wolf from France (Christmas Story) ghost-banned?
Nothing evil in it - to the contrary - and even not a long post with many formattings.
Technical problems?

Baaing Sheep Herd storms Supermarket
20 minutes of chaos at the supermarket: Dozens of sheep wander into the grocery store –
startling customers and employees with their visit.
Sheep goes shopping.
Animal visit at a supermarket in Lower Franconia: Around 50 sheep invaded a Penny discount store in Burgsinn on Monday morning while it was open for business. The sheep lingered among the shelves for about 20 minutes, bleating.
As shepherd Dieter Michler explained to the Main-Post newspaper, the group broke away from his herd shortly before. He was leading about 500 sheep along a narrow path at the edge of an industrial park when around 50 went off on their own. They lost contact with the herd and then marched across the supermarket parking lot and directly into the store.
Lured by a Shopping Bag?
What might have motivated the sheep to visit the supermarket remained unclear. The shepherd suspected that the sheep might have followed a customer with a shopping bag, hoping to find food inside.

Or the dogs were asleep when the wolf came.
And now those sheep are even worse than the notorious wild boars of Wannsee!
The wild boars at the edge of Berlin attacked unsuspecting bathers, snatched their plastic bags
and turned them into plastic schnitzel.
So again:
DO NOT FEED.

He also said that the sheep only knocked over a shelf and only stayed in the checkout area.
Otherwise, they were peaceful and hadn't eaten anything.

This
is another wolf.

What you see in this video is exactly what you can expect should you actually encounter a wolf.
Even in the much rarer encounter with a wolf family, the same thing would happen.
Anyone who claims otherwise either has no clue or a very vivid imagination. Who meets a wolf like this:
Stay calm and let the wolf go on his way. Keep your dog close and ideally on a leash. -

Yah, it's a good movie, I enjoyed it very much.
It's doubtful he could call the other wolves with his oboe, and that they would then take the 2 orphaned polar-wolf pups into their family. But it's a movie, not a scientific essay.
So thanks for your recommendation!

Clear Message from Gernsbach
️ Hands off the Hornisgrinde Wolf
Despite the rain, over 100 people gathered in Gernsbach on Friday evening to demonstrate
for the Hornisgrinde wolf – shortly before the ruling of the Administrative Court of Mannheim.
"The most peaceful Wolf in D is to be sacrificed?!"

Administrative Court - Hornisgrinde Wolf may be Killed
The Administrative Court of Baden-Württemberg in Mannheim ruled in expedited proceedings on appeals from nature conservation associations. According to the ruling, the so-called Hornisgrinde Wolf may be shot immediately.
A Wolf.
The
Hornisgrinde Wolf
may be shot. The Administrative Court (VGH) declared the species protection exemption granted by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of the Environment for the killing of the
Hornisgrinde Wolf
to be likely lawful and enforceable in two expedited proceedings. This dismisses the appeals by nature conservation associations against the decisions of the Stuttgart Administrative Court of February 05, 2026.
The wolf may therefore be killed with immediate effect until March 10, 2026.

This means that a so-called

Unfortunately, they still have a bit of time until March 10, 2026 (start of the closed season).

Shooting the Hornisgrinde Wolf could backfire in the Election Campaign
The dispute over the "
Hornisgrinde "Wolf"
long since became a political flashpoint in southwest Germany: Shooting permits, court rulings and election campaigns clash with growing wolf populations, low risks to humans and conflicting interests between farmers, hunters and conservationists. While Environment Minister Thekla Walker (Greens) is under pressure, hunting laws, lobbying influence and the acceptance of wolves in rural areas come into focus. According to a study, wolves are very popular.
Animal rights activists in the Black Forest are holding vigils.
….
….
European Court of Justice
️
Not least, some media outlets could lose even more trust. In the NINA study, 79% of respondents stated that the risks posed by wolves are exaggerated in the media. Animal rights activists announced, they'll take the case all the way to the European Court of Justice (ECJ), if necessary. They also call for a next vigil for the
Hornisgrinde Wolf
on Saturday at 18:00 p.m.
in the parking lot of the Hotel Sand in Bühl. So, the situation remains tense.

Discussion about Hornisgrinde Wolf
The Hornisgrinde wolf continues to generate headlines.
The permit to shoot him is valid until March 10, 2026.
The
Alternative Wolf and Bear Park
in Bad Rippoldsau-Schapbach currently receives numerous inquiries.
The park therefore will hold an information event on March 07, 2026.
The event will address the impact of human behaviour on wolves, among other things.
Afterwards, visitors will have the opportunity to observe wolves at dusk.
The idea behind the event is, to get to know native predators like wolves, as well as bears and lynxes, so that precisely this kind of misbehaviour by humans can be avoided.
Date:
March 07, 2026 at 17:00 p.m.
Location:
Alternative Wolf and Bear Park Black Forest
Duration:
2.5-3,0 hours (depending on the participants' interests)
Price
(adult): EUR 45 including a snack
Price
(child): EUR 25 including a snack
Registration is required.

Green Minister wants to shoot the Wolf
Demo for Wolf "Grindi"
When demos take place in Germany, they usually occur in market squares.
Sometimes about war, sometimes against extremism, sometimes for higher wages.
In the Black Forest, a protest movement forms far from any pedestrian zone.
In the middle of nowhere, among spruce and fir trees, it's not about high politics,
it's about
"Grindi"
.
More than 200 citizens at a demo against the planned shooting of wolf “Grindi”.
People now call him
"Grindi"
, this wolf with the official ID number GW2672m.
He roamed around since 2023 the 1,164-meter-high Black Forest peak of the Hornisgrinde, which gave him his nickname. And he doesn't just like people; he's also a bit vain. He repeatedly approached curious hikers and allowed them to photograph him. He didn't suspect that this would be his death sentence.
Thekla Walker (56), the Green Party's Environment Minister in Baden-Württemberg, said that his lack of fear is a danger. A secret team of hunters [
"removal team"
☻] is supposed to shoot him. That's met with fierce protest.
Demonstrators wear Headlamps
I, the BILD reporter, want to know who these people are, so I travel to the demo in the Black Forest on Saturday evening. The route leads through the national park, past lakes and forests. Somewhere here,
"Grindi"
roams around – and he has the hunters on his tail.
The demonstrators gather at the meeting point in the woods. No professional activists. People like you and me: Tradesmen, office workers, retirees. Many carry headlamps and flashlights. Their plan: to show their presence, patrol the national park and thus delay or prevent the shooting.
88-year-old Woman at the Vigil with a Rollator
Brigitte Graf (57, dental technician) from Karlsruhe is there with dog Nayumi (1) and says:
"I was already at a vigil for 'Grindi' in Bühl two weeks ago. I think that a wolf living in a national park shouldn't be shot."
Retiree Ursula Litterst (88) came to the demo with her rollator. She holds a sign with a wolf picture and the sentence:
"Please let me live."
She grumbles:
"I voted for the Greens since the party existed. Now that the Green state government decided to shoot Grindi, they won't get my vote anymore."
BILD reporter Robin Mühlebach (59) and Ursula Litterst (88) with her rollator
.
Jörg (61) and his wife Konstanze Zeltwanger (59) live near the national park. She says:
"We are hobby shepherds, and our sheep were never attacked by a wolf. We consider it a scandal that the wolf was included in hunting regulations."
In fact, Grindi isn't a bad wolf. He killed 9 sheep in the past four years; other wolves are considerably more bloodthirsty.
Biker is also present
Hubertus du Bois (57) from Offenburg wears the vest of his club
"Lobo MC"
. Lobo is Spanish for wolf. He is against shooting the wolf for the sake of honour.
"The wolf only showed himself to walkers with dogs because it was mating season and he was looking for a female to mate with."
As darkness falls, Michael Stadler (59, master hairdresser) and his wife Beatrice (52) put on their headlamps. They're going on patrol. Perhaps the light will drive Grindi away from the three hunters who are after him…
"It can't be that in the national park they talk so much about nature conservation and then try to push nature back in the form of a wolf,"
says Beatrice.
Bettina Vögele-Diebold & Anja Gester set off on their night patrol with companions.
Housewife Stefanie Braun (40) drove several hundred kilometers from the Rhineland with her children Noel (16) and Lara (13). They made large protest signs:
"Grindi has a Right to Life!"
After the vigil, Bettina Vögele-Diebold (65, pediatric nurse) and Anja Gester (64, geriatric nurse) put on bright vests. They switch on flashlights and headlamps and march along a hiking trail. Their mission: To walk through the night through the national park – in the hope that predator
"Grindi"
will be allowed to live.
