The County Administration identifies Gåsborn’s territory in eastern Värmland and Skugghöjd’s territory in the west as the appropriate areas to deploy wolf puppies.
The idea with the release of the puppies is to enhance the genetics of the Swedish wolf population. Lars Furuholm is the predators manager for the County Board:
” We have found these two territories to which there are already genetically valuable animals from Kynna territory of Norway”, he says.
The government has changed the hunting regulation so that it will be easier to decide on the controlled hunting of wolves when necessary, and the Environmental Protection Agency has delegated the decision to the county.
County Administrative Board of Värmland can probably count on an application for a controlled hunting from Hagfors municipality where the wolves have become more intrusive towards people.
