Sheep farmer Alexander Morren from Kamperveen reportedly lost about 100 sheep in a short period because of wolf attacks. Other farmers in the area were also affected, and almost 150 dead sheep were registered in reports from Overijssel between May and August.

Hundreds of sheep graze in the province to help maintain nature, but the future of the affected sheep flocks is described as being at stake. The flocks are portrayed as vulnerable and have called for help.
