The term "vargen" refers to the wolf in Swedish. Wolves are wild canines known for their social structure, living in packs that work together to hunt and raise their young. They play a crucial role in maintaining the balance of ecosystems by controlling prey populations. In Sweden, the gray wolf is the most common species referred to as "vargen." These animals are protected under Swedish law, but their population has been a topic of debate due to conflicts with livestock farmers. Conservation efforts aim to ensure the survival of wolves while addressing the concerns of local communities.
