Résumé anglais No Status, No Salvation. Bears and Wolves in Spain Following a minor event, questions have been raised in Spain about how changing the legal status of two beasts of prey (bears and wolves) will affect collective representations and practices in rural communities. Enforcing the new legislation will not suffice to supplant local, age-old, practices. Relationships with animals are thought out in terms of territory. Despite compensation for damages, killing the animal trespasser is still, for local people, a useful, legitimate act. It is also a way to hit back at tists, administrators and ecologists. The event in question clearly shows that the newly acquired legal status has not put an end to traditional perceptions.
