to me
In response to a lawsuit brought against the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service, the Federal District
Court for the District of Columbia has vacated a 2012
decision, which delisted wolves as an endangered species.

This decision returns wolves in the Great Lakes Region,
including Wisconsin, to the Federal Endangered Species
List.

Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources and Department
of Justice legal staff are reviewing the decision to
determine how it will impact Wisconsin’s wolf management
program. Further information will be available following
this review.

Immediate implications of this ruling include the
following:

Permits which allow lethal removal of wolves issued to
landowners experiencing wolf conflicts are no longer
valid. The department will contact permit holders to
alert them.


The department is not authorized to use lethal control as
part of its conflict management program. Non-lethal tools
and depredation compensation remain available. Those
experiencing conflicts with wolves should contact the
United States Department of Agriculture – Wildlife
Service for conflict investigation and management
assistance. USDA Wildlife Services can be reached at 800-
228-1368 in northern Wisconsin or 800-433-0663 in
southern Wisconsin.


Wisconsin’s law allowing landowners or occupants of the
land to shoot wolves that are in the act of depredating
domestic animals on private property is no longer in
force. Landowners may not kill wolves in the act of
attacking domestic animals.


Under Federal Law, you cannot use dogs to track and train
on wolves.


Wisconsin is not authorized to implement a wolf harvest
season.
While the department is disappointed by this decision, we
will continue to support USFWS and their original
decision to delist and remain confident in the State of
Wisconsin’s ability to manage our wolf population.
