July 6, 2022 at 12:04 Noah won in wolf case in the Court of Appeal Today the verdict fell in the case of the Letjenna wolves in Borgarting Court of Appeal. The result was a complete victory for the animal rights organization Noah from a unanimous court of appeal. In April 2020, Noah sued the state over the shooting of the Letjenna herd inside the wolf zone. In the summer of 2021, Noah won the case in the district court, and now the Court of Appeal has also confirmed that the state’s decision was invalid, and that the killing of the wolves was illegal. The Ministry of Climate and the Environment’s decision of 31 December 2019 that the wolves in the Letjenna area should be common does not meet the requirements, the Court of Appeal states. – The Court of Appeal has concluded that the application of the law in the decision is incorrect, and that the decision is therefore invalid, it is stated in the ruling. – This is a very important victory, and Noah expects that the Minister of Climate and Environment Espen Barth Eide now relates to the court’s clear and thorough verdict, and apologizes for the mistakes made against red-listed wolves in Norway, says Noah leader Siri Martinsen in a press release.
