After tears in the forest
Wolf in Pinzgau released for shooting again
Following recent sheep kills in Oberpinzgau, the ordinance for the shooting of wolves in Niedernsill has been revived. From now on, wolves may be hunted for four weeks.
Six sheep are dead, two are missing. On Sunday, a wolf killed the animals in the municipality of Wald im Pinzgau. The province's wolf commissioner, Hubert Stock, was able to clearly attribute the kills to a wolf.
The ordinance for the originally Niedernsill wolf, which is valid until November 15, 2024, is therefore active again for four weeks.
The wolf that killed the six sheep may now be hunted within a ten-kilometer radius of the location of the kills. The last day of a possible cull would be October 6, 2024.
The legally controversial regulation allows hunters to kill the wolf in the event of harm or risk to the population.
The regulation for a wolf in Niedernsill and Mittesill only expired at the end of August. It had killed five sheep but could not be shot by hunters.
