Inventory report shows that the number of lynx in the county is barely 200. Most are beatiful. The number of wolverines is estimated at approximately 200.
The survey shows strong increase of wolverine litters throughout the country except for Norrbotten, where they 36 wolverine regeneration area in the county is in line with previous years' inventories.
The report met with sharp criticism.
- Many Sami villages have been in touch about the severe inventory conditions during wolverine inventory. Seven Sami villages believe that it was not possible to survey a sufficient extent. If the weather varies with alternating thaw and snowstorm can not find traces of wolverines, even if they are there, says Marita Stinnerbom.
Sami Parliament Reindeer Husbandry Board believes that the provincial government is not listening to reindeer herders' knowledge and want to establish new consultation for the seven Sami villages that refused a request to cull the wolverine.
- If it was not inventoried in a satisfactory way, no one can say how big the wolverine population is truly in Sweden. Inventory The result is not only the basis for predator compensation, but also for decisions on protection yachts. There will be a moment 22 for samebys, emphasizes Marita Stinnerbom.

SUNNE / ARVIKA: Dense flocks of wolves
Friday afternoon was organized in haste a briefing on the state of the wolf situation that arose in the Rack The territory, Arvika in the west to the Western Ämtervik east. Experienced hunter Bertil Forsberg had with wolf tracker a well-attended meeting in the library in Sunne.
About one hundred people had gathered, it could be hunters, Accommodations in the neighborhood, pet owners and many people in general feel concerned by this sensitive issue. Everything is about to get additional permits to cull beyond the wolves already postponed.

large territory
The territory is at issue is what is called Rack territory stretching from Arvika in the west to the Western Ämtervik east, and from Kymmen / Grassland in the north and then down towards Värmelns beach in the south.
According wolf trackers may be several flocks simultaneously in different places.
- If you pass a road at a certain time during the night with several tracks, there could be further more tracks one hour later, was one of wolf tracks the comment.

According to Bertil Forsberg has territory escalated and become impossible to manage.
Wolf has been in the area for many years, but it has historically not been a lot of wolf attacks on dogs.
But the past year, there has been a dramatic increase of wolf attacks on dogs, both pet dogs, and hunting dogs. Only in recent weeks there have been several attacks, which eventually led to hunters applied for protective hunting of all wolves in the Rack The territory.

Wolf tracks
During the week, the days with snow, it has been tracked very closely by wolf tracks were, and in their opinion it is more with wolf tracks than elk traces, In short, four wolf tracks toward an elk traces, and just like the previously mentioned pops up constantly new tracks. It also appears that many of the wolves, moving in flocks, found a place a bit north of Western Ämtervik. Many elk have there been eaten.
Bertil Forsberg believes that there is no longer a huntable moose population left there. In other areas of the territory has been found several territorial marking and several wolves have been visible.

Beslut
The County Administrative Board is the authority that grants permission regarding culling, and at the moment it is a new application for culling. It is hoped that there will be an announcement soon.

 "Natural wolfbehaviour" ( is a + article in VF)
 
wolf hunting.
Many hunters think that the measure is heaped with regard to the wolves. But it also makes the wolf friends - but from the opposite point of view. - Löshundsjakten must be removed, says Marlen Fuglsang, member of the Swedish Society for Predators and Hunting critics.
This is because of the hunters in the area around West Ämtervik applied to the provincial government about the culling of all wolves in the Rack The territory, with reference to the wolves attacked where several hunting dogs and killed a. - We are very upset about it and also very upset that the provincial government is considering culling, says Marlen Fuglsang.
- The problem with löshundsjakt is that wolves do the will, that is, attack dogs intruding on their turf. It is a natural behavior for wolves. - Löshundsjakten is vital. You can go in the drive in place and let the dogs when you see ungulates nearby. In this way scared the wolves away when they hear people in the forest and the dogs do not run, and seek out the wolf. Marlen Fuglsang feel that she and her co-thinkers in the Swedish Society for Predators and Hunting critics are fighting an uphill battle. - hunters are a well-oiled lobbying organization with great resources.
We are not as strong. And the county administrative boards is most often the hunters line. They talk all about that acceptance of wolves will increase by licensed hunting and culling, but although both forms are granted, it is the poaching of wolves remains high. Marlen Fuglsang emphasizes that she is not against hunters. - We accuse certainly not all hunters poaching. Most of the hunters are well-behaved, it is only one percent of the hunters who engage in this. But the small proportion down to the very great harm.
Marlen Fuglsang also calls for greater protection for the wolf. - We think that clause 28 overused. That is hunting regulation provision on the right to defend their livestock from predators attack. According to Marlen Fuglsang is the section of loosely worded in terms of proof. - There is no way to find out whether the animal owner really fired warning shots first. And also no way to find out if it was really an attack on time. She also thinks that the county administrative boards should be given more responsibility to investigate to pet owners trying to protect their animals and give examples of where she and her colleagues contacted the provincial government to call attention to predator fences are in good condition on a sheep farm, but received the reply that outreach controls are not part of the mission. Marlen Fuglsang and several other members wrote in a statement to the New Folkblad that it should not be allowed any culling at all in the Rack The territory. - You can not go out and shoot a wolf, then maybe one of the alpha animals are killed and it is not good for the puppies' education. The population is also far below the maximum level of 300 animal. Others claim the opposite, there are many more wolves than the maximum level.
- It's a deliberate strategy from those who want to remove the wolf.

For those of you who do not have + the service then the text below.
“Kolsva wolf may be dead. County Board does not rule out that it was the one that found the tågspåret in Fagersta Tuesday.
- It is impossible to answer, one can only guess. The wolf that we cull in Kolsva is the emigration of age. This means that it is quite possible that it may feel that it is time to draw from his hemrevir, says Tobias Deer Jet, game administrators in the County Administration Västmanland.
The Kolsva wolf so, just to show up at a different place in Västmanland is not obvious.

- If it is lost, it can just as easily turn up in Varmland, says Tobias Deer Jet.
It was at 15:40 pm on Tuesday, a dead wolf was found on tågspåret from cramp and bark marsh in Fagersta. Police suspect at this time that serious hunting offenses behind the wolf's death.

On Monday, den 11 september, the wolf to the National Veterinary Institute (SVA) Uppsala Investigation. Among other things, you should determine the gender and identity of the wolf. Caroline Brojer and we, says that the body now lies frozen.

Caroline Bröjer says the study itself can be started in the middle of next week and should be finished before the weekend.

As we previously reported, the wolf seems to have been a rather tragic demise. Banteknikern Andreas Rosén, who was one of those who saw the dead wolf at tågspåret, did not think the animal has been run over by a train.

- It was the middle of the track but it looked weird for did not have any broken bones and stomach was cut open, says Andreas Rosén.
He did not want to draw their own conclusions without referring to the investigation will be made. But he noted that it was strange that only one bowel was outside the body.

- Normally, it tends to be more guts such as stomach and liver, among other things,.
It has also been speculated that Kolsva wolf is the one who took a cat in early September.
Plus customers: If the wolf coming back - Lorenz would have the right to shoot it then.”
