Politics over science: Experts slam Sweden’s wolf cull; say it should learn to live with large carnivores
From DownToEarth.org:
Experts on wolves have criticised the killing of 54 wolves in Sweden February 7, 2023, as part of a ‘wolf cull’. The cull was undertaken after wolves killed more than 340 sheep in 2021, according to Swedish farmers.
The Swedish government in Stockholm has authorised the shooting of 75 of the country’s 460 wolves in its 2023 cull, more than twice last year’s figure, The Guardian reported.
