Wolf attack triggers protest, ministry reserved

Bled, 15 May - About 50 locals held a protest near Bled on Monday after a much publicised killing of what varying accounts say were up to seven sheep by a wolf on Sunday. The Ministry for Natural Resources said the incident remained to be investigated and indicated that calls for tougher measurers against the wolf population were unrealistic.
