In the canton of Graubünden, wolves have killed an adult donkey on a mountain. The attack occurred on Monday night in Alp Durnan above Andeer. The 32-year-old donkey was together with three conspecifics within a protected or fenced area.
The rift is the first case in the canton of Graubünden in which a farm animal of the horse family was killed by one or more wolves, the Graubünden registry reports.
The donkey was used a lot by wolves. The location of the dead donkey is in the range of the Beveriner herd, it is said.
The Bündner Bauernverband writes about this: “It is clearly evident that wolves are now increasingly attacking livestock on a large scale and are losing their shyness. The Bündner Bauernverband is very concerned about this development. A further increase in the wolf population also means an increase in attacks on farm animals, not just sheep and goats, but also farm animals from the horse and cattle families. Therefore, it is extremely important to stop this development and enable the necessary regulations. “
News of the gruesome incident reached the public just days before the vote on the new hunting law. If the answer is yes, wolf populations could be more strictly regulated. Environmental groups oppose this.
According to current law, this wolf must not yet be released to shoot. But the obstacles are much higher. (SDA / bö)
