Now the only question that remains is, what cruel kill method is NOT allowed in Wisconsin?
I can think of only a few offhand:
-Grenade launcher
-Flame thrower
-Nerve gas
-Chemical weapons
Hell, why doesn’t the state DNR just nuke itself every fall (starting with this one) and be done with it? That should take care of their deer, rabbit, squirrel, duck, geese, sandhill crane and wolf “problems” once and for all.

Assembly unanimously passes crossbow hunting bill
By Paul A. Smith of the Journal Sentinel
Nov. 9, 2013
In an era of deep political divisions, Wisconsin legislators can agree on at least one thing: increased crossbow hunting opportunities.
On Oct. 27, the Assembly unanimously passed an amended version of AB 194.
The bill would create a crossbow hunting license and a crossbow hunting season. Hunters of all legal ages could purchase the license.
Under current state law, only hunters with physical disabilities and those age 65 and over are allowed to hunt deer with crossbows.
The crossbow hunting season would run concurrent with the archery deer season.
The amended version creates a three-year trial period during which the Department of Natural Resources will monitor harvest rates by crossbow hunters. The Senate approved the bill in September.
The Assembly vote was 91 ayes, 0 no.
The bill now awaits the signature of Gov. Scott Walker. If the governor signs it as expected, the crossbow hunting season will take effect in September 2014.
Wolf season update: As of Friday, hunters and trappers had registered 201 wolves in the 2013-’14 Wisconsin wolf season, according to the DNR.
Harvest quotas were filled in five of the six wolf management zones.
Trappers have taken 82% of the wolves; the balance have been killed by hunters with firearms.
Zone 3 in north central and northwestern Wisconsin remains open. Nineteen wolves had been registered in Zone 3 as of Friday morning; the quota is 71.
The zone will be open to wolf hunting and trapping until the quota is filled or Feb. 28, whichever comes first.
Given the fast pace of wolf kills since the season opened Oct. 15, the season could be over before the Wisconsin gun deer hunt begins Nov. 23, as well as before wolf hunters could begin using dogs Dec. 2.
The DNR had sold 1,837 resident and 11 nonresident wolf hunting and trapping licenses as of Friday. It authorized the sale of 2,510 licenses through a lottery.
State wildlife managers set a kill goal of 251 wolves for the season.
Hunters and trappers are responsible to know the status of zone closures. Information is available at dnr.wi.gov and by phone at (888) 936-7463 .

hmmm. truth be told, i wouldn’t mind any of this if people were not so stupid.
Jim, home sick with the flu thanks to a 12 year old, ugh. It’s giving me some time to sit down and catch up with some needed attention to many issues and messages. Wisconsin wolves are very important. The ESA also is heated in all of America also. This is why I am bringing to light the Koch Bro’s attack across the nation. In Wis. they came in with their billions of dollars and backed certain politics to swing votes to eliminate any opposition. WHY? Because any endangered species will stop drilling, sand fracking, putting in pipelines (you can’t proceed with a pesky endangered species in the way!) So, the best way to get around this is get the politics one sided and get them to vote everything out. The Wisconsin Leg. is all one sided and the animals and plants are losing in a huge way. Thank you Koch Bro’s! So, take advice, BEWARE! protect yourselves across the states. Now, next, the sadists in Wisconsin purposely made zone 3 high in numbers of 71 wolves. If you look at the DNR map, zone 3 is not very large. Also, most of zone3 is made up of private owned property. REASON? There will not be enough time to murder off 71 wolves before Dec 2nd. So, the bear hunters and trappers that now own the WDNR had already figured this out. It was planned. The media is being told to downplay this. WE NEED TO SPEAK LOUD!!! Because, on Dec 2nd. The DNR is going to open up ALL OF WIS. to DOGS!…. not just zone 3… it is a TRICK! please, do not let people get fooled. THEY WANT TO GET DOGS AND WOLVES INTO THE WOODS! ugh, these are nasty evil people running the show right now. Until we can remove them forcefully, send them to somewhere (insert bad word here) WE NEED TO GET THIS STOPPED!
The DNR’s Bureau of Wildlife Management director, Tom Hauge, says if he had had a wolf permit earlier this month, he’d have headed first for the now closed zones, which have a lot of wolves and public land. “Zone 3 is characterized as having much more private land. So unless you know somebody who owns land in the zone, you have to start by first developing and gaining permission to access land.”
