Saxony-Anhalt wolf linked to slaughter of goats.

In Stuttgart, the Ministry of the Environment revealed that a male wolf from a pack in Saxony-Anhalt is to blame for the deaths of three goats in Baden-Württemberg. The genetic matching was confirmed through swab samples analyzed at the Senckenberg Center for Wildlife Genetics.

Creatures - Saxony-Anhalt wolf linked to slaughter of goats.

A wolf identified as "GW4070m" with a rosy hue was first sighted in the country's southwest. This predator belongs to the Duben Heide pack. It's unsure if it still makes its home in Baden-Württemberg.

Around Easter, in late April, three unfortunate sheep were discovered in Zell im Wiesental. This small town, nestled in the Wolf Prevention Support Area of the Black Forest, typically ensures its pastures are fortified against wolf assaults. If an animal does experience a violent attack, restitution for the financial loss is usually provided.

The Duben Heide pack, where the wolf "GW4070m" originates, is primarily active in the regions of Saxony-Anhalt and Baden-Württemberg. Animals in Stuttgart and other parts of Baden-Württemberg should be wary, as wolves have shown a tendency to migrate. Recent events in Zell im Wiesental, located in the wolf prevention support area of the Black Forest, highlight the importance of scientific studies to understand and manage wolf-human interactions in German regions like Saxony-Anhalt and Baden-Württemberg.
