The Norwegian neighboring municipality Åsnes, bordering northern Värmland, Sweden, would like to send in military helicopters to shoot wolves. This was announced by Councillor Orjan Bue in the municipality at a meeting writes the newspaper Glåmdalen.
“It is a desperate situation and something needs to be done and now we require helicopters and gladly the military sent from Eleverum and the Norwegian government, adding resources,” said the Councilor at the meeting.
The reason for using the military and helicopters is that many sheep have been killed by wolves and now the municipality wants it to be a wolf-free area for free-ranging sheep.
