The state Department of Natural Resources is telling landowners they can start hunting problem wolves next week.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service last month removed wolves in Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota from the federal endangered species list. Starting Friday, the states can manage their wolf populations on their own.

The DNR plans to send letters out today to about 100 landowners who have had problems with wolves killing livestock telling them that they can obtain permits to hunt wolves on their property. The permits will be valid beginning Friday.

Starting the same day, people also will be allowed to shoot a wolf in the act of attacking personal property without a permit.

1. Damn. Wish I'd bought that helicopter dealership up there.

2. As long as the population is managed

by trained biologists, what's the problem?

3. Killing

innocent animals is the problem, are you serious? So can we just kill all the stray cats that are wondering around too.smh

4. The whole 'turning wolf management over to the states' is a crime. Allowing anybody

to shoot a wolf 'in the act' will mean the elimination of wolves.

5. How does a wolf obtain a permit to attack personal property?

For those who think grammar and punctuation aren't important.

For my part, I will happily assist any wolves who would like help filling out the paperwork.
