The canton of Graubünden is resuming the hunt for two wolf packs. This was announced by the responsible hunting and fishing office on Monday evening.
The canton stopped the wolf hunt immediately on Friday following a complaint from nature conservation organizations to the Federal Administrative Court. It is now clear that the complaint is only directed against part of the proactive regulation of wolf packs, the office announced on Monday.
There were no complaints against the hunting of the Lenzerhorn and Beverin packs. This means that hunters who register for the special hunt can also support the game warden in regulating these packs.
On Monday, the canton criticized the nature conservation organizations for not informing them promptly about the exact content of the complaint. "I regret that our work is being made so difficult by the complaints", cantonal councillor Carmelia Maissen was quoted as saying. She added that the canton of Graubünden was practising prudent wolf management.
