DNR To Allow Hunters Train Dogs On Wolves With No Restrictions During Denning/Birthing Season

--Devastating News!!!--

"The DNR now wants to allow hounders to 'train' their dogs on wolves with no restrictions right through the breeding, denning, and birthing seasons until the end of March. When pregnant females need to be preparing for the birth of their litters they will be harassed or even attacked by unlimited packs of vicious dogs. The fine print reads that they can "only" use packs of "six" dogs at a time to "train"but that they can switch out to new packs of dogs if the original pack gets tired. So essentially unlimited dogs will be allowed to go after wolves during this very sensitive time. The DNR even has the gall to call this a "'easonable fair-chase restriction."'"

This is outrageous! In less than a month Wisconsin may be hunting and killing wolves/pregnant wolves/and possibly wolf cubs- with no restrictions! Please take action!
