Does it mean that Norwegian authorities and local people expect wolves to obey administrative regulations? And if wolves don't follow the rules they should be exterminated?

Sorry, but I don't follow your line of argument. I understand these have just been unfortunate accidents... which should lead to more intensive/efficient protection of wolves rather than shooting them...

There are many more wolves in much more densly populated coutries than Norway. Statistics show that more poeple are shot /wounded accidentaly by hunters than attacked by wolves (almost none). Logical reasoning would lead to an absurd conclusion that hunters should be exterminated?
