Pet dog killed by wolves in Douglas County
We need to ship a shipload of wolves to Madison. Maybe when the wolves start taking fluffy off the decks of the liberal greenies something will be done!!!!!!!
We need more dead pet dogs, and cats, and cattle, and horses, maybe then some would start to get it. Not hunting dogs. The horror may terrorize them enough to see the obvious.
Unfortunately that is probably what it’s going to take
Unfortunately it will take a child or a person to be attacked before anybody takes this serious. They just use taxpayer money to pay the losses of pets, hunting dogs or livestock predation to make it all right.
Trickle, for a normal person a child or a person getting attacked or killed by an animal would be cause to do something. You have to remember the world we live in now, a lot of people are idiots now and extremely abnormal. You don't know how much it angers me when someone gets killed and a family member says it's just an animal being an animal and I don't blame them, or, they did not belong there in the first place. We have too many idiots that the wolves/cats need to chew on first.
You think "they" care about your pet or kid?!?! Hell, many of them are the very people that support abortion. They could care less how may puppies or kids get eaten..
These people can't be reasoned with, they can't be made to see the light, the only thing that will ever change their view of the cute cuddly wolves is they actually get eaten by one themselves...and I'm not so sure even a wolf would stoop to that level...they'd probably spit 'em out.
It's only a matter of time when a wolf attacks or kills someone. When an old alfa male gets kicked out of the pack and has to fend for himself, what's a more easy prey than some kid or anyone for that fact walking down a logging trail or even in their backyard. The more they get habituated to humans the worst it'll get. I remember listening to a woman on the wolf hearings a few years back. She said she had horses and has never had a problem with wolves, of course not, she lives in southern Wl. She then when on to say there's what maybe 1.3 million cattle in the state so what's the big deal if a few are killed by wolves. She doesn't have a clue that one or two cows or steers killed means a lot to a farmer in northern Wi.. I wonder how she'd feel if it were one of her horses was killed. I agree with arrow1, if they don't think they're a problem in the northern part of state why we don't ship them down a couple hundred? I think their tune would change in minutes.
I had a conversation with a neighbor woman that worked with the DNR when the wolf program started that said "wolves will not do anything to a dog" when I was looking for our dog. Believe me, these people have no sense or normal thought at all.
This problem is never going away..... Wolves are killing machines, that is what they do,,,,,,, Govt agencies today, get nothing done,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I personally believe there were more wolves shot this year, between dog runners and trappers, than what they had last year in the legal hunt,,,, I have no proof of that, but that is my gut feeling....... waste of beautiful fur,,,,, but what can you do.....
Feral cats are another issue, mostly in southern Wis, and they are handeled......
Response to a few comments. Feral cats that kill birds at feeders are quickly trapped and taken to humane society to be neutered then released back to....kill more birds. That makes sense right. Someone mentioned abortion. My thoughts on that are there are better ways of birth control for women to use. That's what it is right? Birth control. Wolves kill dogs. Period. End of debate.
South Farm is right,,, Why should we expect Madison's liberal crowd to do anything if someone gets killed. The liberals support killing babies very hour of the day. Not to high jack this thread but I have VERY strong feeling about abortion. I lost a grandson and know of many that would love to adopt a child that would be loved but can't. But instead we murder them because of the parents bad judgement and they don't want to take the responsibility of being a parent or going through the birth. JUST HORRIBLE !!!!!!! If you accept your behavior then you should accept the consequences. END OF DEBATE !!!!!
Maybe it’s not if someone gets killed by wolves but how many until something is done.
It would have to take a lot of attacks to change any stance on wolves. Pit bulls are in the news all the time and little is done. Just like an alligator, mountain lion or shark. Usually, they find the one singular animal and put it down and that's about it.
"Maybe it’s not if someone gets killed by wolves but how many until something is done"
Would 50 MILLION be enough? Not to a wolf lover it wouldn't. Last year there were 50 MILLION abortions of human beings. I don't use this argument to make a case against abortion as much as I use it to show the thought mentality you're up against when you ask how many people have to be killed by wolves before anything is done. Well, if 50 MILLION human babies can be killed in one year at the hands of another human then what the hell does it matter how many joggers or old ladies fetching the mail are mauled and eaten by wolves?!? That's the proverbial rope you're trying to piss up with these nut-cases.
Well, the wolves are pretty much screwed then without any type of control... the killing of wolves will continue.
thats good, so is the killing of cats,
Anyone here went to the 2005 Spring CC hearings on voting for a cat hunting season? Remember the question was #60 and the board pushed it to #1 to vote on and get the PETA crowd out of the hearing, by the way the x-bow was voted down also in Monroe Co.
A cat season? Like housecat size wild feral cats season?
Cats are always in season.... in my woods......................................
I can't believe they even brought a cat season up. It was being done anyway. Talk about stirring the pot. Like groundhunter said they're always in season.
Someone sent me this teailcam pic . April 23 rd , Bayfield County. One less Bear Cub .
You beat me too it, I was just going to post for some help on this picture. Please if anyone has information on this picture PM me
Eventually they will simply reduce the number of bear tags issued to sportsmen. This is what the ultimate goal is, wolves do some of the wildlife control, then less need for human hunters.
Because humans are not mammals, well we are not supposed to be anyway. Same that a boy is not a boy anymore and a girl is not a girl gender wise?
In 30 days they’ll start thinning out the fawns from the does that were lucky enough to survive the winter. What a shame.
But there is only about 800 of them in the whole state according to the WDNR, My a## there is. Feed the people BS long enough and most believe it.
Want to meet alot of assholes, go to SW Wis... the Driftless Region is loaded with retired DNR, and Madison types, that love the wolves etc, but they never had to deal with them,,,, I know, I have a deer camp in that region.....
I had a trump sticker on my truck, and in Viroqua, you thought they were gut shot,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, If you do not have a flat brim and drink a specialty beer, they treat you like your from Mars
Your right xtrouts if you repeat a lie long enough and hard enough people will believe it. That has been Trump's motive operandi for decades. Not that I have issues with Republicans as I'm moderate and vote for the person not party I can do without coups, monarchies, and dictators. And anybody named Trump. There was a biologist that said several years ago, Patterson I think his name was? who said there was minimum 1500 wolves probably more in the state. He was from Alaska and wow did they do a number on him. Discredited him with lies and falsehoods. Now guess what. His 1500 count is proving accurate.
GH, you are spot on. I see much of the same in Richland county.
What does a wolf eating a bear cub have to do with Trump?
Nothing. Just as you said if you repeat a lie enough people believe it. Best comparison to that is Trump. And a long list of others just that he tops the list
I must be second. Bow and arrow hunting is continuing to decline, the scoped and cocked long range crossbows are gaining in popularity.
Traditional bow and arrow hunters attitudes are driving new participants of the sport away based on the hypocritical chest thumper attitude, no one wants to be apart of a group like that anymore, change or get left behind.
I do consider compound bow users as bow and arrow hunters. They hand draw, and shoot arrows, not bolts. Just my opinion, which is not worth much.
Again Stumpy, traditional bow shooting is on the rise. Perhaps you need to keep up or get rid of your crutch and try a real bow to hunt with, compound or trad. Of course you would have to put an effort into it.
Good idea stumps, leave yourself behind.
I've been trying to research wolves of Wisconsin. Can't find a true population other than what the DNR claims. I use to get info out of Park Falls which told me how many packs, the name of packs and locations. Last time I tried I was told they couldn't give it to me. All I could find was that there were 292 packs with the largest pack in Fort McCoy. I don't believe there are just 292 packs in the state, maybe the ones that they just know about. I read somewhere back by a wolf expert he said there may be as many as 5,000 wolves in our state, now that's a number I can believe in. Their maps show virtually no wolves in the bottom part of the state. Thought this was interesting - Are there wolves in Vernon County Wisconsin? Southern Wisconsin is not thought to have suitable habitat for wolves, which prefer large tracts of conifer forest. It is unlikely even the Fort McCoy wolves would spread into, say, the Kickapoo Valley Reserve in Vernon County, even though much of that land is undeveloped and wooded, Wydeven said. My friends have seen wolves just outside of Hillsboro and I've seen them just off HWY 12 at Baraboo. Nobody must've told the wolves that they can't go there. I was always under the assumption wolves had no boundaries.
Sauk has packs. Columbia has at least two. Adams has several. Farmer friend in Sun Prairie (Dane) has had a pack of three for several years. Sent photos to DNR said to them Dane county. They said nope Coyotes. Resent the same exact photos a year later and said taken in Rusk. Yup they said Wolves not Coyotes. They don't want to admit Dane but Rusk is fine for Wolves. That's the BS game they play
Found this on a Wisconsin site....We found this picture of my Grandpa, William F. Bohland (1882-1963). He shot the only timber wolf found in Crawford County in 1919. The wolf weighed 98 pounds. My Grandpa was over 6 foot tall. (photo says 1956 but it was reprinted from a negative at that time).

Yes, and they have in the past.
Hundreds of attacks in the past. In Europe they wiped out entire villages hundreds of years ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wolf_attacks
Trickle rut- What has Trump have to do with wolves? Typical boneheaded remark.
