Fact of the matter is, doesn't matter if there are 1,200 wolves, 10,000 wolves, or 100,000 wolves in Wisconsin. Until they're removed from the ESL, nothing can be done about them (legally). Maybe we just need to grin and bear it until they eat themselves out of food and the pendulum can swing the other way.

Very interesting commentary. Parallels the views and observations of many that live and hunt here in the northwoods. Wolves are very common nowadays but that is an inconvenient truth to those that count them and supposedly manage them. Federal judges that rule through emotion and not biological principles help nobody ultimately. Sad state of affairs IMO.

States have no problem ignoring federal laws on marijuana but wolves on the Endangered list is gospel. Open a state season and let the feds try to enforce their laws.

I feel his pain but like others have said it's legislators and federal judges screwing us on wolves not the dnr. Lets focus on the right enemy here. I don't live in Wisconsin, but if I recall correctly the last time Wisconsin had a wolf season the DNR refused to open one until a judge forced them to. Yes federal judges and the legislatures are a big problem, but according to friends I have there the DNR is also pro wolf and anti harvest.

Our WDNR staff generally is not anti harvest. Our governor seems to be though.

Who is John Galt?

Essentially forced the Feds hands and got wolves off the ESA in the West. Yes but the Wyoming political sphere is heads and tails above most other states in common sense, particularly above Minnesota. Barring the Cheney clan of course. I find it interesting I believe Wyoming was on the forefront of women’s right to vote but yet don’t have the overwhelming liberal bias women bring to other state’s constituency’s. Osky

The majority of the state is red according to the map. A couple counties control the outcome every time. The two biggest ones are city people and liberal tree huggers.
