23 cracks in Rauris
Wolf shot down just one day after release
The day before, the Salzburg provincial government had issued the decree to shoot the wolf in Rauris. On Friday morning, the state announced: "The wolf from Rauris has been shot."
Legal clearance was granted from midnight on Thursday. It took the hunters just over 24 hours to shoot the wolf. At around 9 a.m., the state announced that the wolf had been shot. It is known that this wolf is said to have killed a total of 23 sheep in Rauris in recent weeks. For this reason, the province first issued the shooting order.
Further investigations in Vienna
Hubert Stock, the province's wolf commissioner, emphasized in an initial press release: "We know so far that it is a male wolf. Further investigations will be carried out in Vienna, then the age, possible origin and DNA will also be determined."
Stock himself traveled to the Rauris Valley to inspect the carcass. He also says: "The relief among the farmers here is great, the animals will soon be driven back to the alpine pastures."
