Swedish government aims to cull wolf population by as much as half thus breaching the EU biodiversity law
Sweden’s government has said it aims to carry out a significant wolf cull this year, potentially reducing the current population of about 400 animals by as much as half in a move that could breach EU directives.
“We see that the wolf population is growing every year and with this cull, we want to ensure that we can get down to the goal set by parliament,” Anna-Caren Sätherberg, the Swedish rural affairs minister, told the public broadcaster SVT.
“We can see that the level of conflict has increased, and that the level of acceptance has fallen,” Sätherberg said, adding that the government had asked the state environmental protection agency to look again at the right size for the population.

This is such a disgrace for my country. In Minnesota alone, there are more than 2 500 wolves. In Romania and Spain as well. Even tiny Latvia (seven times smaller than Sweden) has more wolves than we do. And yet our leaders claim that we need kill half of our tiny population? Swedes love donating money to save African wildlife (which is great), but it's about time we stand up for our own great wild animals as well.

With these facts,I find no reason as to why culling should be done in Sweden.
