Mystery surrounds a deadly wolf attack in Sweden. A 30-year-old worker was killed by a pack of wolves in their enclosure at Kolmarden park, one of the country’s most popular wildlife parks and the largest in Scandinavia. There were no witnesses and police stated they don’t know what led to the attack, reported Reuters.
After the attack, park staff entered the enclosure to recover their co-worker’s body. An armed official stood by ready to shoot the wolves if they attacked again.
Wolf expert Olof Liberg criticized the wildlife park over the incident.
Yet Liberg had no criticisms before? And all of the other people blaming the park seems to be forgetting that the victim was a worker there. There are risks inherent in working with wild animals, especially animals like wolves that essentially live to hunt. Attacks happen, albeit rarely, and I’m sure the worker who was killed was well aware of the fact that she was putting herself in danger when entering the enclosure. However, there needs to be more information before anyone starts slinging mud.
