- The wolf was captured after attacking a woman in Hamburg and was released again after a week in a sanctuary in Lower Saxony.
- Equipped with a GPS collar, the animal's location can be monitored continuously to enable quick intervention if needed.
- The incident occurred in a shopping arcade where the woman reportedly tried to shoo the animal away; conservationists dispute that a bite happened.
- On Easter Sunday, around 100 to 150 animal supporters gathered at Jungfernstieg to advocate for the wolf's freedom.
With the release back into the wild, we have now found a legally sound solution for this wolf that takes into account the safety of the citizens and the animal's welfare. It is a release on probation.— Environment Senator Katharina Fegebank (Greens) explained the Hamburg environmental authority

- Anthropic launched Project Glasswing, allocating $100 million in usage credits for the Claude Mythos Preview AI model designed to autonomously detect software flaws.
- Access is limited to twelve launch partners such as Amazon, Apple, and Google, who use the model solely for defensive cybersecurity.
- Claude Mythos identified thousands of previously unknown vulnerabilities across major operating systems and software libraries within a few weeks.
- A public report detailing discovered vulnerabilities, patches, and updated security recommendations will be released within 90 days.
The dangers of getting this wrong are obvious, but if we get it right, there is a real opportunity to create a fundamentally more secure internet and world than we had before the advent of AI-powered cyber capabilities.— CEO Dario Amodei said in a post on X, according to CNBC.
