“the County administrative board in Kalmar has decided that the three lynx may be shot during the month of march, but only in the forests of Mönsterås and Oskarshamn, reports SVT. “

“the Reason that hunting is allowed is that the latest national populationsberäkningen shows that there are about 1,200 lynx in Sweden, of which 47 in Kalmar county.”

“Approximately 150 hunters have applied for the special jakttillståndet to hunt the lynx in the Kalmar county. The hunt is held under the county board in order to keep down the population in the county.”
