I'll start to believe the governmentfunded numbers of wolves the day pigs fly...

'bout time you fellow neighbours start thinning the numbers?

We've been doing that for a few years here in Norway, every time we see one when out carryin a rifle.. Not exactly within the law though, but are we just going to watch our huntingfields go west?

The population of moose (elg) in the border area towards Sweden are greatly reduced because of the wolves as they take al ot of calves, yearlings too. In the old days with wolves, the moose was few and far between. Looks like we're heading back to those times now?

There is a great tradition in scandinavia to use bailing dogs when hunting moose. Only problem now is that the bailing dogs can get taken by the wolf as they seem to aim in on the barking...
No hunter I know of dare to let the dog loose along the border with Sweden, especially because those dogs often cost a lot to buy and train to become good, and you actually loose a hunting companion..

I think thats been done already, but it came to action a bit late sadly. They are still increasing in numbers with our legal and the illegal hunting,
