Alpacas Killed in Wolf Attack on Swedish Farm

Three alpacas were killed in a wolf attack at a Swedish farm in Marks municipality. Authorities confirmed wolves were responsible after investigating the incident. The attack highlights ongoing challenges between wildlife conservation and farming interests.

Three alpacas died in a wolf attack on a farm in western Sweden. The animals were found dead on Monday evening in Marks municipality. Local authorities visited the farm on Tuesday to investigate. They confirmed wolves caused the alpacas' injuries. The incident occurred in Västra Götaland county, a region with established wolf populations. Wolf attacks on livestock remain relatively rare but do occur periodically. Farmers in wolf territories often use protective measures for their animals. This marks another incident in Sweden's ongoing human-wildlife coexistence challenges. The alpaca farm now faces both emotional and economic losses from the attack.
