What I like best about this news is that it’s “Nothing happened, everybody panic”. I mean, it’s pretty much well known that the general nature-y area around Switzerland and Liechtenstein doesn’t do so well with wildlife that it’s basically “So great, we have a bear. Wait, the bear ate a sheep? Kill it!”. So if there’s a wolf, I’m sure FL will go and kill it.
But have you noticed what I did there? I went with an if-statement and just rolled with it and pretended that it was actual fact and truth and by the end, you’re thinking that a wolf or a bear is an actual issue FL is facing.
It is not.
Sure, there could be a wolf stomping about the Balzers backwoods, but so far, there’s nothing to indicate that there’s an actual wolf out there. Someone recorded some noises? I don’t doubt that someone did record something, but as long as we don’t know what this something is, there’s nothing to suggest that it’s a wolf.
Mocking the threat, I could say “Someone took a picture of something in the Vaduz sky, surely there’s dragons around”, followed by asking some random person who has once had something to do with something in the sky and quote him with “I’m ready for the [dragon invasion](https://i.imgur.com/wlaWzAB.jpg)”.
In related news: “Someone somewhere did or heard something.”

And if the wolves can’t make it, maybe we’ll get some [boars](http://www.vaterland.li/liechtenstein/vermischtes/Bald-auch-Wildschweine-in-Liechtenstein;art171,262134)?
