We defintely have a growing wolf population in northern Wisconsin. Yes, they migrated in and continue to grow. Very touchy subject and many emotions running with it. They will definitely take deer numbers down. Actually may be de-listed here soon...similar to MN. The area I am in has two very distinct packs, within a "fairly" close range to each other.

As far as an area having too many yotes as someone mentioned, the wolves will take care of that. Hardly any yotes in our area any more....K9's of different breeds do not mix well, and the wolf will win. We have had quite a few hounds taken in the past recent years by wolves. (that's a whole other story)

If the population continues to grow (many of us beleive it is much higher than our DNR states) then I hope we have a hunt for them....I know I would apply.
