YEREVAN. – Wolf population has increased in Armenia due to heavy
snowfalls, Armenian Minister of Nature Protection Aram Harutyunyan
told the journalists on Thursday.
During the Thursday session the government approved the Ministry’s
decision to allocate about $50,000 to award hunters killing wolves.
The Minister claimed the decision was agreed with experts, hence,
it would hardly raise concerns of environmentalists. According to
the Minister, killing of 200 wolves will not damage the population.
