[00:00:00] their claim to be the same wolf that in three
[00:00:03] cases over the past week has run into gardens with
[00:00:06] playing children, and the local community is taking
[00:00:09] precautions. Now, we have a small dog, and we walk in a, we live right across from a
[00:00:13] forest, and I like to find a good big stick to hit him with, in case we
[00:00:17] should meet a wolf, and it is not the first time that a wolf has come
[00:00:20] too close to people in West Jutland. Since January, the
[00:00:24] Nature Agency has had permission to regulate, i.e., kill
[00:00:28] problem wolves on state land. In the Oksbøl area, wolves have
[00:00:32] come close to people several times, for example, when
[00:00:35] a 14-year-old girl was going home from sports in January.
[00:00:39] Guys, guys, guys, there's a fucking wolf, there's a fucking
[00:00:42] wolf, guys, what the fuck do I do, it's been fucking following me, and it is
[00:00:46] now suspected that one of the wolves from Oksbøl is the wolf that
[00:00:50] has in the past week sought out playing children. Therefore, the first
[00:00:53] regulation zone in Oksbøl has not been enough, according to the minister. It has
[00:00:57] not been successful, and now the wolf has moved. But it continues to display the
[00:01:01] same problematic behavior, and that is why we are stepping up the
[00:01:05] seriousness by expanding the regulation zone, and
[00:01:07] the regulation zone, which originally covered Oksbøl, has been extended to the
[00:01:11] north, so it now covers all the way to Hvide Sande. At the same time, the
[00:01:15] Nature Agency has for the first time been allowed to use thermal drones to
[00:01:19] here. Over 1300 have locate the wolf. This is necessary because we are dealing with the same wolf that in
[00:01:22] three cases has approached playing children. It is absolutely
[00:01:26] obvious that this is unacceptable, and therefore the wolf must be shot.
[00:01:30] us, because it is a problem wolf, and the Nature Agency is already in the process of
[00:01:34] searching the area with drone operators and hunters. If we see something on
[00:01:38] the drone that could be a wolf, then the colleague has the opportunity to
[00:01:41] approach the object here, the wolf,
[00:01:45] and determine if it has this unnatural behavior there with
[00:01:49] eliminating it. In Nørre Nebel, it is hoped that the increased effort will create
[00:01:53] wolf peace in the area. We must all be able to be here together, but when it comes so close,
[00:01:57] then I also think one must take some action. It is not
[00:02:00] good, so such a wolf, it must be shot, I completely
[00:02:03] agree.
[00:02:05] And then I can say good evening to you, Peter Sunde, wolf expert and professor at
[00:02:09] Aarhus University. What could be the explanation for this
[00:02:13] wolf having approached playing children three times
[00:02:16] now?
[00:02:19] Basically, it has learned to associate humans with something positive
[00:02:23] and not to be afraid of them, and it did that as a cub a year ago already, and it is the
[00:02:26] same wolf, presumably, that we have been able to follow for the last six months. It has exhibited this
[00:02:30] behavior to varying degrees, and it has been dormant for a long time,
[00:02:34] probably because the
[00:02:36] problem wolf, and the Nature Agency is reward factor has been absent for a long time, and then suddenly we are
[00:02:39] now seeing a, what shall we say, a step up, where it again begins to be very close
[00:02:43] to humans, and my best guess is that
[00:02:47] it has recently received a reward, for example food, so suddenly now
[00:02:51] it starts to revert to the behavior it had as a cub, so you think
[00:02:55] this wolf has been fed by humans, but this is far from the first
[00:02:58] time we hear about... what we call problem wolves, so what should one
[00:03:02] do in your opinion, generally speaking,
[00:03:04] this case, it regarding these
[00:03:05] animals?
[00:03:08] Well, you could say that in terms of handling undesirable behavior, this is a clear, what shall
[00:03:12] we say, unwanted behavior, and there are basically three steps to acting on it, and
[00:03:16] the first step is to remove what provokes
[00:03:19] the behavior, i.e., for example, the
[00:03:22] reward factor, and that is often sufficient. If that is not
[00:03:26] enough, then the next step one can take is essentially re-education by
[00:03:30] subjecting it to harassment, and the very last, what shall we
[00:03:33] say, instance, which is what they have chosen to do here, is to put it down, and
[00:03:37] what is your assessment, can we get rid of these problem wolves or
[00:03:41] do we risk seeing more of them
[00:03:43] in the future?
[00:03:46] Well, this is something we have been aware of, that it should be
[00:03:49] prevented. We know what causes this, and that is
[00:03:53] wolf pups that are exposed to humans and become, what shall we
[00:03:57] say, they establish contact with humans, typically receiving rewards. When they are very
[00:04:00] young, and that typically happens in a place like Oksbøl, where there are many
[00:04:04] people out there, and well, you could say that the first thing you can do is to teach
[00:04:08] people to avoid wolves, especially the young ones,
[00:04:12] and one should never, under any circumstances,
[00:04:15] to their chests, because feed them. That was from Professor Peter Sunde, thank you for being with us here on
[00:04:19] TV Avisen.
[00:04:23] And now we turn our attention to Ceuta, the Spanish territory located here on the
[00:04:27] North African coast by the Strait of Gibraltar.
[00:04:30] Because even though the vast majority of the more than 70,000 migrants who
[00:04:34] streamed to the area last week have been sent back to where
[00:04:37] they came from, there are still many unaccompanied children and
[00:04:41] young people left. They cannot be sent away again when they are alone
[00:04:45] and under 18 years old, and this means, concretely, that
[00:04:49] 1300 children are soon on their way to mainland Spain,
[00:04:53] where their cases will be processed, and more are expected
[00:04:56] to arrive, because in Ceuta, children are currently queuing
[00:04:59] to be registered.
[00:05:03] Long queue in front of the police headquarters,
[00:05:07] the teenagers and children, hoping to be registered so they get a place in a
[00:05:11] migrant center. Many have lived on the streets for
[00:05:14] days,
[00:05:17] dice
[00:05:20] que intenta aquí si le pueden coger porque ha
[00:05:24] escuchado que han escuchado que los menores
[00:05:27] lo están. Adela is looking for her nephews.
[00:05:44] Here at the school, the situation is also chaotic. It has been converted into a
[00:05:47] migrant center, about 100 minors
[00:05:51] on the night between Wednesday and
[00:05:52] Thursday.
[00:05:58] The volunteers are completely overwhelmed.
[00:06:01] overwhelmed.
[00:06:09] Probably around 2000, plus all these papers.
[00:06:14] The minors arrived with over 72,000 migrants in
[00:06:17] Ceuta last
[00:06:18] week.
[00:06:24] About 7000 have left the area again, but many
[00:06:28] unaccompanied minors are still
[00:06:31] already been registered and will be sent to the Spanish
[00:06:33] mainland.
[00:06:37] Familiar always. We have given priority to the most
[00:06:40] vulnerable profiles, this is.
[00:06:50] Addan, just 11 years old, borrows a phone. He traveled to Ceuta with his older brother, but now he is
[00:06:52] alone. His older brother is back on the other side of
[00:06:56] the border. In a video call, his mother asks the adults to
[00:06:59] take care of her little boy. Adan
[00:07:02] later got a place at a center, but
[00:07:05] many have to fend for themselves right now, and especially girls are at
[00:07:09] risk.
[00:07:42] has children and young people who have voluntarily come to Ceuta and are now
[00:07:46] seeking a better life in Europe. They often
[00:07:49] have already lived a life on the streets in one of the big
[00:07:53] cities in Morocco, where they have survived hoping to
[00:07:57] move on to Europe. But they are very vulnerable, many of them have
[00:08:00] drug abuse and are addicted to things like glue and
[00:08:04] spirits, and are having a very hard time, and if they turn out to be under
[00:08:08] 18, they will be placed in these reception centers for children
[00:08:11] in Spain. Until they turn 18, and
[00:08:15] then their case will be re-evaluated. They can apply for temporary
[00:08:18] residence permits or they will be attempted to be
[00:08:21] repatriated. What is new about this case after what
[00:08:25] happened around Ceuta is whether it represents a breakthrough in terms
[00:08:29] of the practice we have seen so far. It could be that they will be even more hard-handed
[00:08:32] regarding the treatment of children and young people under
[00:08:35] 18. They may try to send them back, even if they are
[00:08:39] under 18. She says the Spanish Minister for Children and Youth, but focusing
[00:08:43] on family reunification, mm, what does that mean? Well, it
[00:08:46] means that the Spanish authorities are currently working hard with the Moroccan
[00:08:50] authorities to try to track down these children and young people who
[00:08:53] are currently in Ceuta and who may be sent to Spain,
[00:08:57] trying to find their parents and send them back that
[00:09:00] way, so that already represents a breakthrough with
[00:09:03] how it has been until now, when children and young people are stranded in
[00:09:07] Spain and are placed in these reception centers for children. Why
[00:09:10] that? Uh, because they will send. back possibly immediately,
[00:09:14] um, and that has not been the case
[00:09:15] before.
[00:09:22] In Thailand, a school shooting in the capital Bangkok has cost at least
[00:09:26] seven lives and another 15 are reported
[00:09:29] injured. The suspect is a ninth-grade student from the school, who after
[00:09:33] the attack took his own life, and before the attack, the student is also
[00:09:36] suspected of having shot his grandparents in their
[00:09:39] home.
[00:09:42] it is not caused by criminals, it is caused by
[00:09:45] an individual who had
[00:09:48] carried lot of
[00:09:50] treasures,
[00:09:57] on Monday, a court will decide whether the Norwegian Crown Princess's
[00:10:01] son, Marius Borg Høiby, should remain in pre-trial detention with an
[00:10:04] ankle monitor. In June, he was sentenced to four years in prison for, among
[00:10:07] other things, two rapes, but appealed the verdict and has since been
[00:10:11] in pre-trial detention. According to Høiby's lawyer, they hope to stop
[00:10:15] the pre-trial detention. The prosecution, however, wants it
[00:10:18] extended.
[00:10:22] Today, the Welcome Group received its final death blow, as the
[00:10:26] last of the four separated electricity companies were declared
[00:10:30] bankrupt. This happened in the City Court of Sønderborg, when the companies Power
[00:10:33] Fuel AS, Vedvarende, and B Energy were declared
[00:10:37] bankrupt. And the same happened to the company Netto Power 10
[00:10:41] days ago. Left behind are thousands of customers, who
[00:10:44] together are owed millions of kroner for gas and electricity, which they have
[00:10:48] paid for in advance. I am
[00:10:51] owed 28,714 kroner, so that's a lot.
[00:10:55] A lot of money paid in advance for electricity from Velkommen.
[00:10:58] Unfortunately, I don't have much faith that I will ever see
[00:11:02] my money again, and after today's bankruptcy petitions, it is most
[00:11:05] likely that many customers will lose their money, an expert
[00:11:09] explains. One should not expect to get much,
[00:11:12] maybe a few percent, maybe nothing. At the bankruptcy meeting
[00:11:16] there were, among others, representatives from the state, banks, and
[00:11:19] electricity suppliers. Velkommen owes a lot of money to many
[00:11:22] different parties. There are a huge number of creditors, and almost no
[00:11:25] assets, so that only gives a few percent of what is owed.
[00:11:28] Here, Thomas Søgård Andersen and Lars Heign leave
[00:11:32] the bankruptcy meeting. They are behind the companies in
[00:11:35] Velkommen. The Kontant editorial team
[00:11:39] has previously had them in their sights. There is actually a company in your
[00:11:42] area that is much cheaper than what you have now, called
[00:11:46] Velkommen. Velkommen has closed off customers and borrowed their money
[00:11:49] without paying it back. One stands alone
[00:11:53] in the desert. That's what Henning Shandolf Hansen said the other day about his
[00:11:57] complaint. It concerns 40,000 kroner and has been a
[00:12:00] desert walk, and I have probably
[00:12:03] sent 20-30 reminders to
[00:12:07] them. Last week, Velkommen was visited at their head office. I showed
[00:12:11] up at the address actually last week on
[00:12:14] Ørestads Boulevard. Friendly people asked Tiene Bardrum to take a seat
[00:12:18] and wait at the payments department, but
[00:12:20] as Endes' photo here shows, the premises were actually completely
[00:12:23] empty. It all seems so deeply monitored and planned, a multi-year
[00:12:27] strategy to defraud customers. The Consumer Council has
[00:12:31] also followed the case closely. This is a truly crazy case at a fundamental
[00:12:34] level. The Consumer Council believes the rules for advance
[00:12:38] payments should be reviewed, and they find that ordinary people who are owed
[00:12:41] money in a bankruptcy are at a disadvantage. So the ordinary
[00:12:45] Dane, who is owed 20-30,000, feels
[00:12:48] powerless. What is it that bothers you most? Well,
[00:12:52] it's that it could have happened
[00:12:55] for so long and so planned as it seems to
[00:12:58] be, and it is currently not possible to say how long
[00:13:02] it will take until the calculation after the bankruptcies has been
[00:13:06] completed.
[00:13:08] In the USA, President Donald Trump is now once again trying to limit
[00:13:12] the right to birthright citizenship. Last night, he signed
[00:13:16] two presidential decrees that aim to limit the automatic
[00:13:19] citizenship that is currently granted when one is born in
[00:13:23] the USA. "they've taken birthright citizenship and they've
[00:13:27] made a joke out of it, and we're actually the only country of
[00:13:31] of size, I think just about the only country
[00:13:34] period that does birth right
[00:13:36] citizenship. Donald Trump had previously lost
[00:13:40] a case in the Supreme Court regarding precisely this innate
[00:13:43] citizenship. This happened when the court ruled that
[00:13:47] almost everyone born in the country is guaranteed
[00:13:49] citizenship, and thus the Supreme Court rejected a similar
[00:13:53] decree that Donald Trump had written shortly after becoming president
[00:13:57] for the second time.
[00:14:10] And so, Trine Maria Ilsø, you are with us. So, Donald Trump was
[00:14:13] overruled once by the Supreme Court, and now he is trying
[00:14:16] again. Why is that?
[00:14:20] Because this exact issue of automatic citizenship is
[00:14:23] a flagship issue for the American president, and he also believes
[00:14:27] that the Supreme Court's decision at the end of June
[00:14:31] was utterly wrong, and this automatic
[00:14:34] citizenship is also something that the US almost stands alone
[00:14:38] with. For example, it is not a right if you are born in Denmark,
[00:14:41] so therefore the president is now trying a number of adjustments, for
[00:14:45] example within what he calls birth tourism, i.e. where women
[00:14:49] travel to the US just a few weeks before they are due to give birth, with the
[00:14:52] purpose of giving birth to a child in the US to get
[00:14:55] citizenship, but some of the changes he is attempting, including this one,
[00:14:58] experts are already saying that it is already
[00:15:01] prohibited. But if you have already lost once in the
[00:15:05] Supreme Court, what are the prospects that Donald Trump can get it
[00:15:08] through this time?
[00:15:11] That is a very good question, because some of the changes Donald Trump is
[00:15:15] trying to make concern which group of people has the right to automatic
[00:15:18] citizenship, and there I almost dare to promise
[00:15:22] already now there are experts saying that when
[00:15:26] this is implemented, however it may be, it will also
[00:15:29] end, just as it did last time, but also this time with a
[00:15:33] series of lawsuits, where we will then have to wait to
[00:15:39] At Smukfest in Skanderborg, thousands of guests are dancing
[00:15:42] these days under the beech trees, but it
[00:15:46] is not everyone who has someone to dance with right
[00:15:49] from the start, so this year Smukfest is trying to make it a bit more fun for
[00:15:53] those who have initially traveled
[00:15:55] alone.
[00:16:01] went really well, we have welcomed each other with
[00:16:05] open arms down here, helped each other. Most people who are here
[00:16:08] they come alone, so we are almost obliged to talk to
[00:16:12] each other, instead of people just sitting in groups. In a camping area
[00:16:16] with many one-man tents, is it not lonely to go to a festival
[00:16:19] alone? It has been absolutely fantastic, I think people are much more open
[00:16:23] and sweet and smile and good morning to you all out here and so on, yes, and it is
[00:16:27] very easy to find someone to talk to. Here in the camping area, in the courage area, room has been made
[00:16:30] for some of the nearly 3000 guests who have come to
[00:16:34] Smukfest alone, and a one-man camp can quickly become
[00:16:36] bigger. I'm actually completely alone down here, but uh, I
[00:16:40] got a sleeping partner, he uh bought a tent, but there are no poles
[00:16:44] with it or anything, so I just said, just come in with me, and we'll figure
[00:16:48] something out. Maybe friends can't come to the festival this year, lack of good
[00:16:52] comrades to meet with. He said, I've been here the last two years with two
[00:16:55] comrades, the ones I know, they celebrate festival in a slightly
[00:16:59] more, you could say normal way, right? Where there's a lot going on.
[00:17:02] Some want to try something new, I think it's cozy, so catch me right in the middle of a
[00:17:06] uh quarter-life crisis here, I wanted to go out and take a little more
[00:17:10] adventure to just try something new and jump into it and enjoy some
[00:17:14] new communities down here, and I've found many
[00:17:17] new friends, while others want to keep old
[00:17:20] traditions alive, because I can't miss Smukfest and
[00:17:24] my
[00:17:26] boyfriend and former partner, whom I have been with
[00:17:30] every year, uh, he
[00:17:33] passed away last year, but being alone shouldn't be an
[00:17:36] obstacle. A good festival, it has been boundary-pushing, I think, I am generally quite
[00:17:40] good, uh, good in my own company, I would say. If you want something, I just think you
[00:17:44] should do it, and I thought, that shouldn't hold me back, because this is probably the best party in Denmark,
[00:17:48] I would
[00:22:05] in connection with a 15-year-old girl's disappearance from
[00:22:09] Hedensted. She was found yesterday in Hungary after three
[00:22:12] days of searching.
[00:22:15] Most of the over 70,000 migrants who streamed to
[00:22:19] Ceuta last week.
[00:22:37] People who are alone at Smukfest can now use a new app if they want to
[00:22:41] experience the music in the company of
[00:22:43] others.
[00:22:51] We begin with the story of the 15-year-old girl who earlier this
[00:22:54] week disappeared from her home in Hedensted in East Jutland, and
[00:22:57] who was found yesterday in Hungary. The Southeast Jutland
[00:23:00] police now say that there is suspicion that something criminal has been committed
[00:23:04] in connection with the girl's disappearance.
[00:23:07] We have a very broad investigation, and it naturally takes some time to
[00:23:10] piece all the clues together. And today,
[00:23:14] a preliminary hearing was held in Horsens, and according to our
[00:23:17] information here at DR, it is connected to
[00:23:21] the case of the 15-year-old girl's disappearance, and Jeppe
[00:23:24] Midt i By, you were at the preliminary hearing, how much can you
[00:23:27] tell?
[00:23:30] It is very, very limited what I can tell about what happened inside
[00:23:34] behind these doors here behind me inside Horsens, the court in Horsens,
[00:23:38] because what happened in there was that a so-called reporting ban was imposed, which means
[00:23:42] that we actually heard the charges, both I and other members of the press, but that
[00:23:46] it is information that we are not allowed to share, and that decision was
[00:23:49] made by the judge after the prosecutor stated that
[00:23:54] is both a case where there is offensive information, but it is
[00:23:58] also a case where there are accomplices at large,
[00:24:01] and here the judge chose to impose this
[00:24:04] reporting ban. What I can tell you beyond that is that it was
[00:24:07] a preliminary hearing that was called on very, very short notice. I
[00:24:11] was actually at the police station here in Horsens half an hour
[00:24:15] before it took place and found out that it
[00:24:19] was on the program for today. Furthermore, it was
[00:24:22] a preliminary hearing in absentia, which means there
[00:24:25] were no accused present in court, it was exclusively the judge, defense prosecutor and
[00:24:29] the press, and it is extremely sensational when a
[00:24:33] 15-year-old girl disappears in this way. There is still a lot
[00:24:36] that the police need to get answers to, says our legal correspondent
[00:24:40] here, the 15-year-old girl must be interrogated,
[00:24:44] they must find out what is up, what is
[00:24:47] down, how did she get here? Did she
[00:24:50] go with someone she knew beforehand? What is the
[00:24:54] motive of the accused in this case? And it is a huge
[00:24:58] task they have to undertake, and for the same reason, they also want to
[00:25:01] keep their cards close
[00:25:05] according to the prosecutor in the case, accomplices are
[00:25:09] at large, and in Hedensted, several people are
[00:25:12] affected by what has so far emerged about
[00:25:15] the case. Well, it's horrible. I have grandchildren myself, right?
[00:25:19] I wouldn't even know what I would do if it was them. Even though the
[00:25:23] 15-year-old girl has now been found again, people in the town still have
[00:25:26] many questions. I get some thoughts about, well, a
[00:25:29] girl like that, she can be exposed to too many
[00:25:32] things, and that is terrible. It was here
[00:25:35] by Netto in Hedensted that the 15-year-old girl was last seen at 8
[00:25:39] Tuesday morning, shortly after she left her home. The same
[00:25:43] day, she was reported missing by Southeast Jutland police, before she
[00:25:46] was reported missing internationally on Wednesday, and in the meantime,
[00:25:49] they searched here at home with helicopters and dog patrols in
[00:25:52] the area near Hedensted. As parents, one must have had a
[00:25:56] cruel time until
[00:25:58] she was found, but last night there was news. We are very happy that the girls
[00:26:02] have been found and we will soon be a family
[00:26:05] again, and they are happy about that news in the hometown. I think
[00:26:09] it was great that she is alive, but what
[00:26:12] happened to her? Did something happen? We haven't really been told
[00:26:15] that.
[00:26:19] In the West German town, when Nepel playing children last
[00:26:23] week were approached by the same wolf three times
[00:26:27] in private gardens, and therefore
[00:26:30] both authorities and experts now want... the wolf to be shot as soon as possible,
[00:26:34] and therefore, among other things, thermal drones are used to quickly find
[00:26:38] the animal, just
[00:26:40] stay
[00:26:45] standing. On a walk in Hårstrub, near
[00:26:47] Nørre Nebel, a dog walker had a surprise
[00:26:51] on Wednesday. Away! I threw a stone at
[00:26:53] it. For several minutes, she, her husband,
[00:26:57] and their two dogs could look the wolf straight in the eye.
[00:27:01] The wolf in the video is estimated to be
[00:27:04] the same wolf that on three occasions during the
[00:27:08] past week has run into gardens with playing children,
[00:27:11] and in the local community, people are taking
[00:27:15] precautions. Now we have a small dog, and we go in, we live right across from a
[00:27:18] forest, and I like to find a good big stick to bring just in case we
[00:27:22] should meet a wolf. And it is not the first time that a wolf has come
[00:27:26] too close to humans in West Jutland. Since January, the
[00:27:30] Nature Agency has had permission to regulate, i.e., kill
[00:27:33] problem wolves on state areas in the Oksbøl area. Here,
[00:27:37] wolves have repeatedly come close to humans. For example, when
[00:27:41] a 14-year-old girl was going home from sports in January.
[00:27:44] Guys, guys, guys, there's a fucking wolf, there's a fucking
[00:27:48] wolf. What the fuck do I do? It has fucking followed me. And it is
[00:27:51] now suspected that one of the wolves from Oksbøl is the wolf that
[00:27:55] in the past week has approached playing children. Therefore, the first
[00:27:59] regulation zone in Oksbøl has not been enough, says the minister.
[00:28:02] 'That has not succeeded, and now the wolf has moved, but continues
[00:28:06] to exhibit the same problematic behavior, and that is why we are stepping
[00:28:09] up the severity by expanding the regulation zone, and
[00:28:13] the regulation zone, which originally covered Oksbøl, has been expanded
[00:28:16] north, so it now covers all the way up to Hvide Sande. At the same time, the
[00:28:20] Nature Agency has for the first time been allowed to use thermal drones to
[00:28:24] locate the wolf. It is necessary because we are dealing with the same wolf that
[00:28:28] in three cases approaches playing children. It is completely
[00:28:31] obvious that it is unacceptable, and therefore the wolf must be shot and
[00:28:35] regulated, because it is a
[00:28:38] already in the process of searching the area with drone operators and
[00:28:41] hunters. If we see something on the drone that could be a wolf, then
[00:28:45] the colleague has the opportunity to approach the object,
[00:28:49] here the wolf, and determine if it
[00:28:52] has this unnatural behavior to leave it. In Nørre Nebel, people hope
[00:28:56] that the increased effort will create peace in the area. We should
[00:29:00] all be able to be here, but when it comes so close.
[00:29:02] I think one should take some action, it's not good, I mean,
[00:29:06] such a wolf, it must be shot, I believe quite
[00:29:08] clearly. And then I can say good evening to you, Peter
[00:29:12] Sunde, wolf expert and professor at Aarhus
[00:29:15] University. What could be the explanation for this
[00:29:18] wolf having now approached playing children three times?
[00:29:22] Well, fundamentally, it has learned
[00:29:24] to associate humans with something positive and not to be afraid of them, and it did so as a cub
[00:29:28] already a year ago, and it is the same wolf, most likely, that we have been able to follow for
[00:29:32] the last six months, that has exhibited this behavior to varying degrees, and it has
[00:29:36] somewhat gone into hibernation for a long time, probably because the
[00:29:39] reward factor has been absent for a long time, and then all of a sudden, we
[00:29:43] now see a, what should we say, a step up, where it again begins to be very close
[00:29:47] to humans, and my best guess is that
[00:29:51] it has recently received a reward, for example, food, so all of a sudden now,
[00:29:54] it starts to fall back into the behavior it had as a cub, so you think this
[00:29:58] wolf has been fed by humans, but it's far from the first time
[00:30:02] we hear about what we call problem wolves, so what should one
[00:30:06] in your opinion generally do regarding these
[00:30:10] animals?
[00:30:11] Well,
[00:30:14] you could say in terms of handling inappropriate behavior, this is a clear, what should
[00:30:18] we say, unwanted behavior, and it needs to be acted upon. There are essentially three steps, and the
[00:30:22] first one is to remove what
[00:30:24] causes the behavior, that is, for example, that the
[00:30:27] reward factors are often sufficient. If that
[00:30:31] is not enough, then... the next step one can take is essentially
[00:30:34] re-education by exposing it to mobbing, and the
[00:30:38] very last, what should we say, instance, which is what they have chosen to do here, is to put it
[00:30:42] down. And what is your assessment, can we get rid of these
[00:30:45] problem wolves or do we risk seeing more of them
[00:30:49] in the future?
[00:30:52] Well, this is something we have been aware of, that it should be
[00:30:55] prevented. We know what causes this, and
[00:30:58] it is wolf cubs that...
