Rune Håkansson, inspector at the county administration in Kronoberg, is certain that it is a lynx attack after inspecting the damage.

- Lynxes bite in a special way.

They bite across the throat and only there, he says.

In 2022, six lynx attacks occurred in Kronoberg county, and this was the first for this year.

- We have quite a lot of lynx in the county, so it's strange.

But as a rule, lynx take more sheep than goats, says Rune Håkansson.
