In the initial article, page 167, last sentence of the last paragraph in the body text (above acknowledgment section), the reference citation for “Ciucci et al. 2009” had been misspelled and the reference had been excluded from the reference list.

The published version currently reads as:

“Identical trends of an ongoing rapid dispersal of wolves (Giucci et al. 2009; Duchamp et al. 2012) are observed in other western and central European countries including France and Germany.”

The revised sentence is presented here:

“Identical trends of an ongoing rapid dispersal of wolves (Ciucci et al. 2009; Duchamp et al. 2012) are observed in other western and central European countries including France and Germany.”

Furthermore, the complete reference entry for Ciucci et al. (2009) is presented in this paper.

We regret the error and apologize for any inconvenience caused.
