丹麦当局近期为游客发布了遭遇狼群时的应对指南，建议在与狼相遇时保持静止并进行眼神接触。[1] 这一举措是针对绝迹200年后重新出现在丹麦的狼群。[1]
丹麦境内的狼群自2012年开始回归，目前在日德兰半岛的估计数量为49只。[1] 今年早期，在热门旅游地奥克斯博尔附近发现年轻狼接近人类，当地政府随即在假日住所、露营地和游客中心发放了多语言宣传单。[1]
根据指南，遭遇狼时应保持冷静和静止，同时进行眼神接触，并可拍照记录。[1] 如需驱赶狼群，建议喊叫、拍手或挥臂。[1] 若遭受攻击，指南明确要求"提供最大程度抵抗：打和踢并使用任何钝器"。[1] 此外，当局建议10岁以下儿童在奥克斯博尔地区由成人陪同。[1]
狼群在丹麦受欧盟法律保护。[1] 根据记录，丹麦最后一只狼在1813年被射杀，最古老的丹麦狼骨化石有13000年历史。[1]
Danish authorities have released guidance for visitors on how to behave if they encounter wolves, advising people to remain still and maintain eye contact while resisting with maximum force if attacked. [1]
Wolves, which disappeared from Denmark two centuries ago, began returning to the country in 2012. [1] An estimated 49 wolves currently inhabit the Jutland Peninsula. [1] The last wolf in Denmark was shot in 1813. [1]
Early this year, young wolves were observed approaching humans near Oxbøl, a popular tourist destination, prompting local authorities to distribute multilingual leaflets at holiday homes, campsites, and visitor centers. [1]
Safety Recommendations
The guidelines recommend remaining calm and stationary if a wolf is spotted, establishing eye contact, and taking photographs. [1] If an attempt to drive the animal away becomes necessary, authorities suggest shouting, clapping, and waving one's arms. [1] In the event of an attack, residents are told they "must provide maximum resistance: hitting and kicking and using any blunt object." [1]
Children under 10 years old are advised to be accompanied by adults in the Oxbøl area. [1]
Wolves are protected under European Union law. [1] In April 2012, two young horses were killed by wolves in Denmark. [1]
