On September 19, the canton of St. Gallen ordered the shooting of a young wolf from the pack in the Werdenberg-Toggenburg region following approval from the federal government.

The federal government has now also approved the regulation of the Calanda 2 pack by the cantons of St.Gallen and Graubünden, the press release continued. The canton is still awaiting approval from the federal government for the regulation of the young wolves of the Schilt pack.
