Feds kill six wolves in west-central Wisconsin
Wisconsin News
TOMAH – Federal wildlife authorities have killed a half-dozen wolves in west-central Wisconsin, after it appeared that the animals were losing their fear of humans.
The U.S. Fish-and-Wildlife Service killed six wolves that claimed a territory in Jackson, Juneau, and Monroe counties. Biologist Adrian Wydeven of the state DNR said they’re still looking for one-or-two more wolves from that pack. He said they killed three dogs and injured four others so far this year. No humans have been attacked. But Wydeven said the wolves were starting to show a lack of fear toward humans. And once that happens, he said it’s very hard to change that.
