Guarda

Sculpture in a little park in the beautiful village of Guarda.

Some notes found in a Wildlife web site about Wolfs in Switzerland:
Wolves have been extinct from Switzerland for quite a while, but they are back. Wolves are not as dangerous as you may think. They avoid human beings and at the most they will protect themselves while being hunted. The chances of seeing one are slim. There aren't many wolves in Switzerland and they are shy. If you do see one, it will usually hide in the bushes quickly. Humans are simply not a prey to wolves. To keep them as shy as they are, it is important not to feed them. Do not approach them either. Dogs should be kept on the leash at all times.

That is a very realistic sculpture. Young calves and goats might not be so happy to see the return of wolves. Voted for your lovely composition.
