Tables containing the data used in the demographic analyses of the German wolf population.

Description of the data and file structure

Two tables are provided:

• data_wolf_survival_table.csv. This table contains individual information used in the survival analyses: information on the number of weeks an individual was alive (weeks_date) until confirmed death (status = 1) or went missing (censored, status = 0), sex, the month of the year that the individual was last detected (death_month), the season of the last detection, habitat suitability of the natal (hs_8km_natal) and final territories (hs_8km_final), the information to calculate the territory density in the 50 km buffer in the natal (_first) and final (_last) territories (nterr_buffer50 = the number of territories in buffer...

Manuscript: Continuing recovery of wolves in Europe

The two data files are:

1. Depredations and compensation costs for each of the 34 countries. The following fields document depredations: depredation unit (i.e. n animals killed for all countries, except for Poland), domestic animal (sheep and goat, cattle, horse and donkey, semi-domestic reindeer, dog) killed, total depredations, year of depredation data, amount of compensation for wolf damages (EUR), and year of compensation data. These figures are taken from Table 3 of the LCIE report by Boitani et al. (2022), except for few cases where the number was updated by the country-responsible author. The dataset also reports the wolf abundance (in number of individuals) and the year of wolf abundance data, as well as the calculated depredations per wolf (total depredations/wolf abundance) and the calculated compensation per wolf (compensation/wolf abundance). The wolf abundance figures are taken from Table 1 of the LCIE report by Boitani ...
