MADISON, Wis. (AP) – The Wisconsin Court of Appeals has dismissed a Department of Natural Resources request to stop the wolf hunt, which is scheduled to begin next week.
The DNR was appealing a court order that requires a hunt this month. Although the Natural Resources Board authorized the wolf hunt on the judge’s orders, the DNR was nevertheless appealing the Jefferson County judge’s order which said the agency violated hunters’ constitutional rights (see related story).
But the appeals court says that the order was not a final judgment, so the appellate court has no jurisdiction over the appeal.
The weeklong wolf hunt will run from Feb. 22 through Feb. 28, and the permit application period closes at midnight Saturday. The state will issue 4,000 hunting licenses. Up to 200 animals will be allowed to be harvested.

“The DNR was appealing a court order that requires a hunt this month.” “Although the Natural Resources Board authorized the wolf hunt ….?” I keep rereading this piece of convoluted Wisconsin schlock reg. some wolf-hating judge protecting “hunter’s rights” to kill 200 beginning Feb 22 nd…. and not gaining any traction.
The ‘Jefferson county’ judge remains unnamed by media.
Wow, I wonder if that is even legal. I think citizens have rights when it comes to public regulations and actions by courts. The poor wolves. Some of those hunters probably know the pack locations by heart.
I just saw this on my Facebook, unfortunately it is too late to enter this lottery, because it ended Feb 20.

Thanks for link. “As many as 4,000 wolf hunters will enter the woods of Wisconsin on February 22nd, 2021.” 4000 salivating armed killers plus salivating numerous uncaged hound-dogs & in past WI wolf hunts, nobody but wolves ever got hurt? Confusing, do all 4000 buy $49 or $250 permits or only the 200 who get to kill a wolf… which would have a bearing on how desperate the killers are & the potential for ‘hexidental’ killings!
