In Finnland it is legal to hunt wolves but in southern part only if you have a special permit.
Population is quite limited in here and hopely stays so. Traditional moose, hare and bird hunting with dogs is already endangered in some parts of our country because wolves. Wolf is listed in endangered species list ant therefore it is extremely difficult to get license even when some wolves came in to yards and take domestic animals. Finnish wolves are same population than russian wolves so Finnish wolf is definitely not endangered species.
I have seen couple of myself and my wife seen three once when she was riding. My grandfather's pet name was Sus' Yrkkä = Wolfie George because he shot one with his Mauser 9,3x57 rifle about 50 years ago. Then wolf was extremely rare animal in here because then man can hunt it freely.
