Healed Wounds

The wolf hunt in Sweden this winter has been evaluated by the authorities. Nineteen wolves were murdered. Out of these, five had been born with faults on the skeleton or teeth. Well, we all know the Swedish wolves are inbred, so this is not strange. The thing that makes me really angry is that two of the wolves had wounds from being shot before. The wounds had healed, but they must have hurt a lot. If you do shoot a wolf, but only hurt it, it is animal abuse not to give it veterinary treatment or at least put it out of its misery. Two wounded wolves out of nineteen can hardly be dismissed as a coincidence and the unfortunate result of accidents. Humans must have wanted to shoot these wolves before. This is evil.
