Why This Is Important
“It hasn’t even been 2 months since Wolves in the Great Lake region were finally removed from the endangered species list and already Wisconsin wants to invite hunters to hunt and trap them. The state assembly didn’t consult with any of the groups that have been historically involved with making these kinds of decisions. One of the groups includes the Ojibwe tribes, and according to a treaty signed by our government with these tribes, they MUST be consulted before these kinds of decisions are made. The Wisconsin State Assembly’s approval of this wolf hunting bill is in direct violation of this treaty. We cannot allow this bill to go through, not only because it violates the rights of the Ojibwe tribes but because the wolves play a critical role in the ecology of the Great Lakes region. It is only recently that we have been able to restore their numbers to a status that is no longer endangered, and having an open hunting season will surely land them right back on the Federal Endangered Species list.
Details from the original New York Times article below as well as a link:
“Less than two months after wolves in the Great Lakes region were removed from the federal endangered species list, the Wisconsin State Assembly approved a bill on Wednesday that would open the way for a wolf hunting and trapping season.
The bill, supported by hunting groups, Republicans and some Democrats, passed by a 69-25 vote. It was opposed by environmental groups and the Great Lakes Indian Fish and Game Commission, which represents Ojibwe tribes in Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota. The tribes have significant rights in wildlife management in much of the area where wolves are found and said they were not consulted on the hunting plans as required by a treaty. State wildlife biologists also criticized various elements of the bill.
The measure now goes to Gov. Scott Walker.
A number of Democrats spoke Wednesday against the bill and sought amendments, denouncing it as “very irresponsible and anti-science.” No Republicans spoke for the bill or against the amendments.”

Wisconsin Assembly Approves Wolf Hunting, By JAMES GORMAN, March 14, 2012, 5:39 PM for providing this information.

The wolf hunts throughout all the states involved is one of the most collosal clusterf*#*ks of all time.
Good to see that the Indian Tribes are taking a stand. No wonder the Native
Tribes detested the white hunters and settlers who moved into their ancient
lands and caused so much havoc and destruction.
i never did believe in hunting wolves and i never will!!!!!!!!!
