Two close episodes, same dynamics, same disturbing message. Between Pisa, Cascina and the Arnaccio area, severed wolf heads were found publicly displayed, first on a road pole and then on a FI-PI-LI overpass. A gesture that immediately aroused indignation, fear and bewilderment, transforming a news story into a national case.
Approximately ten days apart, the two findings suggest a deliberate and repeated action. Not an isolated act, but a disturbing signal that has turned the spotlight on a matter yet to be clarified. The page “The Wolf, son of a lesser God” intervened forcefully, committed to the protection and dissemination of the species. A direct appeal was launched through social media: anyone who knows something, speak up.
Cut of up to 8 thousand euros and appeal to witnesses
To encourage reporting, a reward of 5 thousand euros has been announced, which can reach up to 8 thousand euros thanks to the contribution of the Il Pettirosso Wildlife Center of Modena. The objective is clear: to collect reliable and decisive information to identify those responsible. The activists guarantee anonymity and protection for anyone who decides to collaborate, underlining how such incidents represent a danger not only for wildlife, but for the entire community.
Ongoing investigations and hypotheses about the herd
The forestry police are working on the case, while genetic analyzes on the remains of the animals continue. The tests could clarify whether the two wolves were related and therefore belonged to the same pack, a key element in identifying the area where they were killed.
However, it will not be easy to reconstruct the movements. In this period of the year, in fact, wolves go through the final phase of dispersion, moving even for kilometers in search of new territories. A detail that further complicates the investigation.
A barbaric and symbolic act
The story has sparked a broader debate on the relationship between man and wildlife. The authors of the appeal speak openly of a barbaric and symbolic act, capable of striking not only for its violence, but for the message it transmits. “Tuscany is not this”, is the call launched by activists, who invite us to defend a territory historically linked to culture, beauty and respect for the environment.
According to the page, in 2026 barbarism of this type cannot be tolerated and it is unacceptable that those who committed it can even think of going unpunished. This, in fact, could give rise to possible acts of emulation. Meanwhile, while the investigations continue, one certainty remains: someone knows. And now, more than ever, silence risks being complicit.
