SE: No release of wolf pups this year

Roughly translated by TWIN Observer

STOCKHOLM / TT

Putting out wolf pups born at zoos into wild wolves’ territory will not happen this year.

If a release is to succeed, the zoo puppies and the wild pups must be born within eight days of each other. Now, wild pups were born to the two marked females much earlier than zoo puppies, writes the Environmental Protection Agency in a press release.

A new attempt will be made next year, when authorities hope that more than two wild females can be labeled.

The idea of ??the release is to reduce inbreeding in the wolf population.
