DNR Compensates Hunters for Dogs Killed by Wolves
Lindsay Veremis
The Wisconsin DNR says it will foot the bill for dogs killed or injured by wolves.
The DNR says if a wolf does attack, hunters should contact Wildlife Services immediately and mark the site with clothing.
They say those records help control and manage wolf populations.
The DNR also says it wants to remind hunters wolves are protected by the state and federal government, and killing them is against the law.
To receive compensation, hunters must have the attack verified by USDA Wildlife Services at (715) 369-5221
