A wolf was shot in Tirol after killing six goats on a farm near Arzl in the Pitztal region. The incident occurred despite the absence of a hunting decree typically required for such actions. Authorities confirmed the wolf was killed but emphasized that the conditions for its removal were under investigation. According to a study by the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (Boku) in Vienna, approximately ten percent of Austria’s territory is both suitable habitat for wolves and prone to livestock attacks. This research analyzed 124 wolf sightings and 109 documented attacks, linking them to factors like forest cover, terrain, proximity to settlements, and livestock farming.
