A genetically significant wolf has been responsible for killing around 30 sheep and lambs in Gausdal municipality, according to analyses conducted by the Norwegian Directorate for Nature Management. The wolf, identified as a Finnish-Russian immigrant, is considered crucial to the Scandinavian wolf population.

Farmers argue that the authorities' bureaucratic approach is inadequate and that action is needed to protect both livestock and human well-being.
