Conference - Federal states want faster wolf culls from spring

Particularly hard-hit federal states want to make it possible to shoot wolves more quickly by the start of the 2024 grazing season with uniform state ordinances. Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania's Environment Minister Till Backhaus (SPD) announced corresponding talks in Münster on Friday. The countries in question are Schleswig-Holstein, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Lower Saxony.

At a two-day meeting, the federal and state environment ministers agreed that wolves that have breached protective fences and killed livestock can be killed more quickly. It remained unclear how many animals this could affect per year. Federal Environment Minister Steffi Lemke (Greens) said that it would be dubious to give a figure at this stage.
