Several hundred people demonstrated against the shooting of wolves on the Bundesplatz in Bern on Saturday afternoon. They demanded a stop to the “wolf massacre”.\n<\/p>\n

Many of the participants appeared in red clothing. Many of them had a dog with them, as a reporter from the Keystone-SDA news agency reported. Speeches were made calling for the cessation of wolf culls, interspersed with drumming.<\/p>\n

The national rally was organised by the \u201cCommittee Against Wolf Culls\u201d. It was supported by several organisations, including Wildlife Protection Switzerland and Tier im Fokus.<\/p>\n

According to the committee, a \u201ccruel and undemocratic game is being played in Switzerland under the guise of management\u201d. Wolf pups are being \u201ctaken\u201d almost arbitrarily and a wolf massacre is taking place.<\/p>\n

The Swiss Animal Protection STS had already issued a statement to the public on Friday. It expressed its \u201cdeep dismay\u201d at the latest decision by the Federal Office for the Environment to authorise wolf culls in 21 packs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis measure is not a sustainable solution,\u201d the STS continued. It even harbours considerable risks for the stability of wolf packs and the protection of livestock in Switzerland.<\/p>\n
