Swedish vote for letting citizens shoot wolves

Not only did the non-socialist parties win yesterday, but I have been told that there was an advisory initiative on the ballot regarding shooting wolves. There is apparently a real problem with wolves killing farm animals and attacking pets. By margins of between two-thirds and over 80 percent the different parts of the country that voted on the initiative, voters wanted to allow people to shoot the wolves when they posed a threat to these other animals.
