SE: Controlled hunt of wolves appealed

Roughly translated by TWIN Observer

HUDIKSVALL / TT

The culling of a wolf that killed some dogs outside Färila was appealed on Friday by the two organizations Wolf Association Sweden and Wolves in Scandinavia. They demand immediate staying of the decision, which means that the culling decision by the County Board in Gavleborg is stopped pending the appeal. Environmental Protection Agency will soon decide on the matter.

The appeal says that it is difficult to ensure that the right wolf is shot. The wolves that move around Färila are also genetically valuable to the Swedish wolf population.

The hunt has begun, but so far no wolf has been shot.
