The number of bears in illegal bait material in the stomach increases each year. It argues the provincial government of Dalarna who want to raise the issue in talks with major landowners and hunting associations.
- Illegal baits are a big problem. It can also be an explanation for the bear hunt goes so fast in Dalarna, says Linda Vedin, game administrator at the Provincial Office of Dalarna.
In Dalarna there during the bear hunt approved bear bait. Bait has been around for years, but there has never shot a bear.
In contrast, increases the illegal åtlarna. It argues the provincial government in Dalarna, who believes that many of the bears shot during the hunting also visited such carrion. It is the examination of the stomach contents. Of 51 studied bears more than a third of the animals had bread, cereals, apples and / or slaughter residues in the stomach.
