Hunters, conservationists, and wildlife enthusiasts, we have exciting news! Wolf Report is expanding its reach, now covering not just Minnesota, but also Michigan and Wisconsin. This expansion marks a significant step forward in wolf monitoring and management, as it empowers more people to contribute to understanding and managing the wolf population across these states. Get involved in helping to make state-run Wolf Management a reality.

Wolf Report began as a local initiative in Minnesota, aiming to provide a comprehensive platform for tracking wolf sightings and interactions. The goal was to create a user-friendly system for hunters and residents to report their observations in real-time. With the overwhelming success and support from the community, the program has now expanded to cover Michigan and Wisconsin. This expansion allows for a broader understanding of the wolf population in the Great Lakes region.

In the northern heart of Minnesota's wilderness, a hunters saga unfolds—a delicate dance between deer hunters and wolves. While the latter are iconic symbols of the wild, they pose significant challenges for those who cherish the hunting tradition. Enter Wolf Report, a crucial ally for Minnesota deer hunters, aiding in bringing management of Minnesota wolf populations to ensure a balanced ecosystem.

Wolves are a symbol of the wild, embodying the untamed spirit of nature. In Minnesota, the gray wolf represents this wilderness more than any other creature. However, the topic of wolf management is a contentious one, often sparking heated debates among hunters, conservationists, and residents alike. While opinions may vary, the science behind wolf management is clear. Responsible wolf management is essential for preserving Minnesota's natural heritage and supporting those who live closest to these animals.

The Biden administration has asked the 9th U.S. District Court of Appeals to reinstate a Trump-era rule that removes Endangered Species Act protections for gray wolves across the U.S. If approved, this rule would transfer wolf management to state control, potentially reopening hunting seasons in regions like Minnesota.

Minnesota's wolf recovery has been a remarkable success story. In the 1980s, our state set an ambitious goal to restore the wolf population to between 1,200 and 1,400. Today, we boast over 3,000 wolves roaming our forests and farmlands. While this is a testament to successful conservation efforts, it also presents new challenges that require thoughtful management.
