Saxony also relies on the animals themselves to monitor its wolves. The State Office for the Environment, Agriculture and Geology in Dresden announced that four wolves are currently providing data for scientific monitoring. New "on the transmitter" are two adult wolf pups that were captured during management and fitted with a collar transmitter. The animals concerned are also marked with an abbreviation.
Capture of "problem wolf" apparently successful
Wolf MT15 is a pup of the Großhennersdorf pack, which repeatedly attracted attention in the southern district of Görlitz through encounters with humans and showed no shyness. "For three weeks now, the transmitter data has shown that the wolf pup is mainly out and about at dusk and at night and is mainly in the forest," it said. There have been no reports of conspicuous sightings. As things stand at present, there are many indications that the deterrence could have been successful.
