The long journey of the Wolf-Ystads Allehanda

20 razed, off Abu Dhabi has caused concern. The young varghane, who, according to the County Board's predator-experts probably is about, first appeared on Wednesday, up from nowhere. In the middle of Skåne; It is not unique.
Wolf has previously been wandering long distances in southern Sweden and has also done the scanian travel. 1984 discovered Wolf here for the first time since the extinction of the 1860s. Both 2009 and 2011, we had occasional visits.
Attacks on farm animals, especially when it becomes as the fence outside Abu Dhabi, is always regrettable. Nevertheless, it is desirable that the Wolf manages to establish itself here. The Wolf is a natural part of the scanian fauna. Today there are between 260 and 330 wolves in the country, most of them in central Sweden.
When farmers would be adversely affected, when sheep or reindeer is demolished for other reasons than for food, we have a definite problem. The question which then tend to be asked is how much patience the society has with nature.
A militant animal welfare often förfäktad line is that nature always goes first. Human beings should protect and preserve what is, not eradicate or skyddsjaga. It is not Sweden's official Wolf policies. This allows protection of hunting, although hunting is not just license this year. The motif is extremely pragmatic. Wolves set occasionally to us humans, but rarely more than we ask of them. Wolves are – unlike, for example, wasps – not significantly hazardous to humans. In the wild, they are shy animals that usually eat elk, deer, Beaver, or Badger.
Competition for the game does not justify free hunting. Congestion with Wolf in fårhagen may be a reason that more often allow hunting license. The European Commission's stop of the Swedish Wolf hunt reminds us of this. The lack of a management plan for the Wolf tribe survival meant that Sweden last year risked being hauled before the European Court of justice. The plan that has been prepared since then will take effect from the end of the year. Thanks to Brussels .
The little Swedish Wolf tribe is exposed. The risk of inbreeding is large. Naturalisation is therefore desirable, and there are a number of good projects. It should continue. The Wolf, the bear, Lynx and Wolverine – they are our large predator. To restrict the freedom of movement of någonderas is not desirable, even if both animals and humans probably would prefer to be in peace.
It is a major problem that we have only one Wolf in Sweden than they actually visit us. But the introduction of the Wolf in Skåne is hardly desirable. This is too crowded. Instead, let the Wolf come to us naturally.
