This is only at human targets including the warning shots. 9000 rounds were fired to control the animals.
From the same Reddit thread, 65 shots were fired in Sweden last year and in Denmark only 26 shots in 2007.

"Couldn't find new stats from the Danish police but in 2007 26 shots were fired on duty. From 1996 to 2007 Danish police shot 3.5 people a year and killed on average 1. Privately owned guns are rare here and virtually always in the hands of hardened criminals, still, we don't have laws similar to America where you risk spending your entire life in jail, so a bank robber who's about to be apprehended will rather lay down his weapon than try to shoot his way out, which of course is better for everyone.
