Hundreds of millions wasted on culling wolf population
The swedish government is not skimping on funds when it comes to reducing the wolf population to a record low and scientifically questionable number of only 170 individuals. Over the next three years, more than 338 million Swedish kronor will be spent on minimising the wolf population. In other respects, however, the government is stingy with investments in nature and the environment. The environmental budget has been cut by four billion since the government took office in 2022, and the reduction is even greater in practice when inflation is taken into account.
