First of Wis. Dnr doesn't control the wolf population. Most realize that it is controlled by the federal goverment. Wolves doing damage come under the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture WildlifeDamage Section. They are the ones who investigate wolf damage claims and do the removal of the offending animals.
I hunt a number of areas that have wolf packs, both the flushing Lab. and GSP don't roam, they are trained to stay close. No longer bear hunt, to old for the chase. Most hounds are killed by wolves during the training period when the pack has pups with them I would not train in an area that has known wolf packs with my hounds.
