Popis: | From November 1980 to May 1984, the Directorate for Wildlife and Freshwater Fish, Game Research Division has collected 285 reports of wolves Canis lupus in southeastern Norway. 64 reports have been verified as wolf, 69 have been rejected as non-wolf and 152 are unsolved. The main range for wolves in southeastern Norway was situated east of the river Glomma in Hedmark county. Wolves regularly crossed the border between Sweden and Norway, and the population is considered common to the two countries. Although it is difficult to draw any conclusions as to the total number of wolves within the study area, a minimum of three solitary adults was estimated in the first years of the study. Five wolves were the maximum number verified simultaneously in southeastern Norway. |
