“The situation can develop in different ways. Adult males, gathered in groups, are able to protect themselves from dogs with their massive horns. And young individuals and females that walk “heavy” all winter are completely defenseless against the pack. Especially many victims are recorded closer to spring, when a crust forms on the surface of the snow, becoming a trap for deer,” said employees of the national park.

In addition, dogs in a pack behave especially boldly and aggressively. Wild dogs intending to hunt deer behave especially cunningly. Some of them drive victims to the edge of a cliff, trying to throw them off, others bite their legs or tear their stomachs.

Fed dogs will return, chase forest animals and prevent them from feeding peacefully.
