Im Wald werden die Knochen von Marvin Sommer, einem militanten Tierschützer, gefunden. Er hat sich ganz dem Schutz des nach Bayern zurückgekehrten Wolfs verschrieben.
Damit hat er sich jede Menge Feinde gemacht: Kreisjagdmeister Dannenberg will keine Wölfe in seinem Revier, und Biobauer Leibinger beklagt den existenzbedrohenden Wolfsriss mehrerer seiner Jungtiere. Mit seinem Mitstreiter Mauritz hat er sich gänzlich überworfen.
Sommers junge Frau Luisa, ebenfalls glühende Tierschützerin, gerät auch ins Visier der Kommissare. Hat sich ihr Mann doch einen kleinen Seitensprung mit der Biologin Frau Dr. Brandt erlaubt. (Text: ZDF)
