[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 590395, member: 3733"] You talk pretty smart yet how do we know you even hunt in an area with wolves? You could be in southern MN, where there are none or a infrequent visitor. I will tell you this is not the case in northern WI. in the 2010 season there were no/limited doe tags in the northern 1/3rd of the state, this should mean that those does will drop fawns for 2011. 2010 nubbin bucks will grow antlers the following year to be huntable bucks, since none should be shot with no antlerless tags. Well 2011 rolls around and the buck kill in that part of the state was down 20%, as high as 29% in some units. Our winter last year was relativly mild last year and the DNR is scratching there heads as our weather this year during the 9 day season was ideal. The last 3 years the deer kill in WI is down over 150,000 to 200,000 vs the previous 5 seasons. Some of this is overharvest but where the hunters kill is really dropping is in wolf range. Take a moderatly severe winter and wolves harassing game and disrupting feed paterns, now these stressed animals sucome to winter kill when they normally (minus the wolf) would survive, no one ever counts these numbers that are directly related to the wolf being on the landscape. Personally, Every one of the mutts should be wiped from the landscape in the lower 48. There not endangered in Canada and Alaska [/QUOTE]
