Another wolf shot in Lower Austria! In the district of Zwettl, an animal was shot on Saturday after the wolf had repeatedly approached inhabited buildings within the local area.

In the days and weeks before, there had already been sightings and approaches in the immediate vicinity of houses during the day. Although measures were taken to drive the animal away, it repeatedly approached inhabited buildings. The removal of the wolf was reported by the province of Lower Austria in good time and an assessment by experts from the province was carried out immediately.

Deputy Governor Pernkopf comments on the shooting
Deputy Provincial Governor Stephan Pernkopf states: "If problem wolves approach our settlements and thus threaten the safety of people, then of course they can be driven away and shot." He continues: "Because this Lower Austrian wolf ordinance serves to protect people, livestock and pets from wolf attacks."
