I agree that we need to think outside the box, and keep pushing.

Senator Ron Johnson seemed enthused about delisting. He's been awfully quiet lately.

The house is voting this week. Better make your phone calls send your emails. Ask Your U.S. Representative to Vote YES on H.R. 6784! They are going to hear plenty from the other side!

Many large dogs have a similar size print but almost never walk a perfectly straight line. We’ve had some recent reports of single wolves being caught on camera outside of known pack territories. It’s always possible to get individuals or pairs searching out for new areas to set up in.
We are committed to service excellence."
Visit our survey at http://dnr.wi.gov/customersurvey to evaluate how I did."



We sure do need a season on them. I never realized how far apart wolf prints are when they are running.


You've got one honest DNR person working for you in WI, it sounds like. Wish we had some here in MN. They keep saying the number of wolves stays about the same. Even though they're not hunted or trapped and have no real natural predators. The only natural predator wolves have in MN would be mange from over population.

Over 20 years ago, our DNR said the number of wolves in MN was around 3700. Now, it's about 1200 less than that? Anybody with any common sense has to feel their intelligence is being insulted.


With the US so divided, I'm just glad to be on the side that believes in God, has the most guns, and knows which restroom to use.

Well since legislators couldn't get a bill passed, the administration is stuck trying to work through the normal channels. That means it is time to put in comments to support with the federal register. Hopefully it won't be like the grizzly bear were sportsmen didn't bother to comment and it hurt the efforts.

Time is running out to get your comments in. Only about a week left until the deadline.

If you haven't done so, please do. If you have already done so, find a few more folks to submit their comments.

Comment submitted. Let's hope it passes, then let's hope we don't fall victim to the shady politicians that try and sneak in wolf hunting/trapping bans at the last minute like our neighbors to the west. I'm unsure if Evers will support recreational wolf hunting and trapping in Wisconsin, but only time will tell. First things first, let's get them delisted and end the stupid lawsuits from animal rights groups.

I know, and I know the Democrats have tried passing similar bans in the past and failed, but it's a bit frightening to think something so far from common sense can gain any sort of traction. Minnesota has way more wolves than Wisconsin, and a governor that has openly stated he doesn't see a need for recreational wolf hunting and trapping.

(d) $10,000 the first year and $10,000 the
second year are for payment to the Leech Lake
Band of Chippewa Indians to implement the
band's portion of the comprehensive plan for
the upper Mississippi.

The above of course, is an extraction of your tax dollars appropriated to the band to expend favor in the eyes of the public all while they administer public opinion against wolf management.

Hopefully your state legislature can do the reverse of what happened on the federal level--remove it in committee. Good luck 49er.

I still can't believe fed register shows less than 30,000 comments and we have a thread with nearly 300,000 views. Apathy runs rampant. That said, thanks to those that have taken the time to provide your comments and an extra thanks to those that have helped someone else provide their comments.

We'll find out, committee meetings begin today and tomorrow on it. Don't know when the final vote will be. Dont think today's and tomorrow's meetings are televised either. Hopefully they will put transcripts online.
