Watch for hunters blaming wolf
All of the hunters I know that hunt in the U.P. think it is awesome to have wolves in our state. It is a thrill to hear them or see a track. The only complaining I've heard or seen about wolves in MI has come from people who have lost pets or livestock to wolves. I have heard complaints from U.P. locals about fishers killing off small game and songbirds. The fisher is the only effective predator of the porcupine, so they serve a purpose. I have seen several fishers over the years, many pine martens and coyotes, but no wolves yet. Maybe this year.
Watch for hunters blaming wolf
It's only a matter of time before deer hunters start blaming the wolves for their inability to find deer. The article points out that the wolves are not reducing the herd much. But you'll soon see hunters calling for the right to exterminate wolves again, because deer are less easy to hunt now.
