Swiss hunters get go-ahead for major wolf culls
From Reuters:
GENEVA, Sept 26 (Reuters) – Switzerland gave five districts the go-ahead on Thursday to shoot wolves after reports of attacks on livestock, a move that will please many farmers but anger conservationists who say culls have gone too far.
The government said it had allowed the killing of three entire packs in southwestern Valais canton and of any members of another pack that roam beyond the protective borders of Switzerland’s only national park, in the eastern canton of Grisons.
