Remember, wolf 'delistment' or 'harvesting'
means wolf killing, principally with head shots delivered to wolves already-snared in leg traps.
So note that the deadline had been May 15, but the Wisconsin DNR has posted a new federal comment closing date of July 15:
Perhaps the DNR's allowing the killing to exceed its own so-called 'quotas' played a role in the federal court's finally saying, 'enough.'
There remain lingering, bloody legacies in the form of only-in-Wisconsin $2,500 per-hound payments from the DNR to bear hunters who let their dogs run off-leash into fatal encounters with the larger, very territorial wolves.
Repeat payment collectors can continue to make new claims, as can documented scofflaws.
And there is continuing pressure to reinstate the wolf hunt, even without limits, so boosting the madness into poaching status.
Other cruel 'training' practices remain legal in WI, too.
As to Walker:
He's on the record wanting what he called a successful 'harvest' brought back, hiding the brutal realities of leg traps and head shots behind sanitized language.
But let's also remember that Walker was so eager to please this particular part of the hunting bloc that he suggested lowering the already-meager wolf killing permit from $100 to a mere $50 before the shameful business was again outlawed.

So note that the deadline had been May 15, but the Wisconsin DNR has posted a new federal comment closing date of July 15:
The gray wolf is currently on the federal endangered species list. This listing status limits the state of Wisconsin's management authority including the authority to hold a wolf harvest season.
The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) has submitted a proposal to delist wolves from the endangered species list, and is accepting public comments through July 15, 2019. The proposal, as well as options to submit comments to the FWS, can be found on the office of the federal register website. [exit DNR]
More information about the federal wolf delistment process is available at the Fish & Wildlife Service's gray wolf webpage. [exit DNR]Please go to the site and weigh in; states like Wisconsin brutally abused the last wolf killing permissions and we don't need that repeated:
