Gesa Kluth

Gesa Kluth (* 1970 near Göttingen ) is a German biologist and wolf expert.

She studied biology in Bremen and in 1996, as part of her diploma thesis, dealt with a wolf pack in Estonia . After spending some time in Brandenburg, she currently lives together with the nature filmmaker Sebastian Koerner in Upper Lusatia , Saxony , where the first free-living wolf packs have settled in Germany.

Gesa Kluth is considered a wolf expert in Germany. Together with her colleague Ilka Reinhardt , she founded the LUPUS wildlife biology office in Spreewitz, northwest of the Upper Lusatia military training area , from which the wolves began to spread again in Germany. Gesa Kluth works with the Saxon State Ministry for Environment and Agriculture , the International Fund for Animal Welfare (International Fund for Animal Welfare, IFAW) and the NABU together. In Poland, the country of origin of the German wolves, this is the Polish biologist Sabina Nowak . She sees it as one of her tasks to work with the animal owners in the region. In this way, livestock should be protected without the wild wolves being shot down.
