In less than 72 hours, the state of Wisconsin allowed 216 wolves to be legally killed statewide, during the day or night using dogs, snares, traps, guns, night vision technology, and even running them down to exhaustion with snowmobiles. This hunt was detrimental to our wolf population and they cannot withstand another hunt this fall.

The bill eliminates the requirement for bear and wolf hounders to carry rabies and license tags for their hunting hounds. A public hearing was held one day after the bill was released.

The Wisconsin Assembly Natural Resources Committee is considering a billย this Wednesdayย that would violate the public trust and put Wisconsin on a slippery slope to privatizing our wildlife and encouraging poaching.

There's nothing wrong with technology, but there is a point where it starts replacing skill and encouraging an attitude of entitlement.
