On January 13, a wolf was found dead near Simplon Dorf in Upper Valais. The Valais Wildhut did not provide any information about the circumstances of the animal’s death.

The wolf’s carcass was found on the side of a road, the Valais Department of Hunting, Fishing and Wildlife (DJFW) said on Friday, following a request from the Keystone-SDA news agency. She thus confirmed a report in the newspaper “Walliser Bote” from the day before.

The animal has no gunshot wounds

However, the department did not comment on why prosecutors did not open an investigation even though the wolf was found dead nearly three weeks ago. She also declined to provide information about the whereabouts of the carcass. “An analysis is currently underway and therefore we are unable to provide any further information at this time,” the report said.

Another wolf was found dead in Mörel in Upper Valais on January 21. His remains were taken to the veterinary faculty in Bern to determine the exact circumstances of this animal’s death.

According to initial findings, the animal had several injuries, but no gunshot wound, the Valais canton police said in a communiqué at the time, explaining that an investigation had been launched. (SDA)
