The grey wolf sighting has now been confirmed by France's biodiversity office l'Office français de la biodiversité – which marks the first confirmed wolf presence in Charente since 1926.
The wolf was spotted and photographed in the commune of Gurat, on the border between Charente and Dordogne, by 28-year-old local woman Marina Varraniac-François on Monday morning, as she returned from dropping his son off with his childminder.
