Right now there are a number of Bills and poison rider to delist wolves, gut the Endangered Species Act and more. Wisconsin has also put a new Bill out that has many hunters salivating. The Bill would prohibit the Department of Natural Resources from spending any money to manage wolves beyond reimbursing people for depredation losses. State law enforcement officers would be barred from enforcing any law relating to wolf management or that prohibits killing wolves. NO PROTECTIONS and poaching will be in full swing.
The Wisconsin Northern Wisconsin Houndsmen Association and the Wisconsin Association of Sporting Dog Clubs cannot wait! They said they have all been waiting far too long to have protections removed for wolves. Can you imagine? These psychopaths BAIT bears with anything they like, such as loads of surgery snacks and grease. They raise their dogs to be vicious killers to brutally hunt down hundreds of bears in this state. These trained dogs have no choice but to follow their owners commands. If anyone has ever seen a bear hounding video, it’s one of the most brutal things you will ever see in your lifetime. We know what will be in store for wolves if we do not take action.
On January 1st Protect the Wolves shared this action post to make it very easy for everyone to take action.

Please block any rider that delist the wolves or harmful to any wildlife as well as our wild horses. Also block any repeal of our EPA regulations . Block any rider harmful to our National Parks and the Antiquities Act. Block any rider that is a big give away of our taxpayer funded public land to the logging , mining and oil industry. Respectfully, (your name)
Plus we have got to take these wolf killing states to court!! Even $5 or $10 will help if we all pitch in! I know we can do this but please don’t wait until many more wolves are gone forever. Thank you ~ L.G

The Latest: Wolf hearing gets off to tense start
10:55 a.m.
A public hearing on a Republican bill that would end state wolf management efforts is off to a tense start.
Democratic Rep. Nick Milroy began the proceeding in front of the Assembly natural resources committee Wednesday by complaining that the bill’s chief Assembly sponsor, Republican Adam Jarchow, didn’t show up to address the panel. He said he was disgusted by Jarchow’s absence. He said Jarchow proposed the bill simply to appeal to his conservative base as he heads into a special election for an open state Senate seat Tuesday. He questioned whether the committee’s chairman, Rep. Joel Kleefisch, called the hearing simply to help Jarchow score political points.
That brought a stinging rebuke from Kleefisch, who promised the election has no bearing on the bill and the committee won’t vote on the proposal until after the election is over.
Jarchow aides didn’t immediately reply to an email inquiring why Jarchow didn’t attend the hearing.
The bill would prohibit the Department of Natural Resources from spending any money to manage wolves other than to reimburse people for depredation. State law enforcement officers would be barred from enforcing any federal or state law relating to wolf management or that prohibits killing wolves.
Wisconsin wolves are on the federal endangered species list. The bill would be void if President Donald Trump’s administration removes them from the list.

This is despicable. Wolves must be protected or hunters will murder them all,same with bears,coyotes etc. Many hunters are not sportsmen, only care about killing for fun. Animals are not trophies, they are deserving of life the same as we are.
