Authorities in Šumava National Park have launched an intensive search for several wolves believed to have escaped from their large natural enclosure at the Srní Visitor Centre. The centre has been temporarily closed and the residents of nearby villages have been warned to exercise caution until the crisis is resolved.

Wolves returned to the Šumava mountains after more than 140 years at the start of the millennium.
