The Swedish government had recently given permission to shoot 16 wolves. But after fierce protests by pro animal groups this was suspended. Unfortunately, the decision came too late for three wolves.

USA: February 2013. Yet another Red wolf has been shot dead, adding to the spate of Red wolf shootings at the end of 2012. The wolf was found with a suspected gunshot wound on January 18, 2013, north of the Town of Fairfield, in Tyrrell County, North Carolina: here.
