American farmers use rock music to deter gray wolves

• US cattle farmers are using drones to play rock music and movie clips to deter gray wolf attacks on livestock.
• This 'hazing' technique, which involves drones equipped with heat-seeking cameras and loudspeakers, has proven effective, significantly reducing wolf attacks in areas such as Oregon's Klamath Basin.
• Despite the success of the drone method, wolf attacks continue in other western states, resulting in livestock deaths and considerable financial losses for agricultural businesses.
• The House Appropriations Committee has approved a bill to remove gray wolves from the endangered species list, which would grant states the authority to manage wolf hunting.
• Conservation groups are concerned that delisting the species is premature, highlighting a rapid increase in wolf kills in Wisconsin when federal protections were temporarily lifted in 2021.
