There is a wolf season in WI and the quota is reached quite quickly and then the season is closed by the DNR. Both trapping and hunting. What that tells me when they close the season early - POPULATION is higher than they knew.
I lost good grouse habitat because of wolf depredation reports on dogs. Mainly bear hounds but there are some bird dogs in there too! I steer clear of those areas by 4 miles or more.

Wolf hunting and trapping
Attention: A Federal court decision has relisted the gray wolf as an endangered species in the western Great Lakes region, including Wisconsin.
All wolf harvest zones are closed.
