I hear what you are saying - but - from what i read - there is like 500-600 wolves in all of wisconson. That seems like a "few" to me. Sure they eat deer - and probably sheep, dogs, cats and whatever else they want. Wisconson is over 65000 square miles - 600 wolves equates to 1 per every 109 sqare miles. I realize that they are in the northern wisonson mostly - so lets say 1/4 of the state - that works out to one Wolf for every 27 square miles. What would you call a large wolf population?

I do think the state should have some control over the population - and from what I read - It sounds like - at least they think they do.

As a hunter - I'd wish I could hunt them. At the same time - I'd be all for protection if need be.
