Two wolves have been shot in the Orsa territory. The first wolf was shot just after lunch, the other an hour later.
“The snow that had fallen during the night, we were able to track three wolves and follow them. One of them got past the posted hunter, who managed to trap it,” says Christer Gruhs, Hunter League’s press communicator to Dalademokraten.
The next wolf was shot shortly thereafter.
Another wolf has been shot in Brattfors in Värmland. It was infested with scabies and probably will not be counted against the quota allocated by wolves during the hunt license.
“In our decision on the hunt is that the wolf killed by causes other than the licensed hunting then these animals are not deducted from the licensing quota,” says Kari Langöen, wildlife officer at the County Administrative Board of Värmland.
Now the wolf inspected and can be seen scabies infestation, the quota of six wolves to remain in the territory. A scabies infestation leads to hair loss and can lead to death.
