She has been taking care of the wolf in Poland since the mid-1990s. From 1993 to 1998 she coordinated the campaign "For the full protection of the large predators, wolf and lynx" in Poland and a campaign for the protection of the entire Polish part of the primeval forest Białowieża as a national park (Białowieża National Park). In 1998 she was elected to the Ashoka Fellowship.[5][6] From 2001 to 2004 she was head of the Polish census of lynxes and wolves. Since 2000, she has been coordinating German-Polish cooperation on wolves with the German wolf experts Ilka Reinhardt and Gesa Kluth.
