In a week the Administrative Board in Värmland makes its decision on winter licensed hunting of wolves. A decision must be made, even though the Supreme Administrative Court in Stockholm did not make a decision on the previous year’s hunting which was appealed there.
“We must start from the judgments from appeals and the administrative law. The purpose of the hunt is okay and licensed hunting at all is okay,” says Maria Falkevik predator manager for the provincial government.
Administrative courts and Appeal courts want according to Maria Falkevik to have a broader base than that which existed in the county administrative board’s decision last year.
The requirement that there be evidence of the impact of licensed hunting will get is virtually impossible without carrying out hunting and studying its implications says Maria Falkevik, who also believes that non-hunting also has consequences, but they can not do research on.
