On July 6th, Wildlife Services confirmed that wolves from the Atkins Lake pack killed two Plott hounds on private property in the Town of Crandon, Forest County. Both dogs were 5 years of age – one male and one female. This pack consisted of seven wolves last winter.

Hunters and dog trainers should be aware of the potential conflict and should exercise caution within this area. The caution area includes Highway 45 to the west, Highway 8 south, County S and Highway 32 on the east, and Yellow Birch Road and Old Railroad Grade on the north.

I heard they were Getting out of control.

Im pretty sure there is more than just that one case. usually 12 or so get roported for the summer. there are hot zones of wolves here in wisconsin where the established pack is known for killing hounds.

...

4 dogs killed and 2 injured since the first of the year by wolves here in WI. I hunt Forest Cty and my parents are from Crandon. I was sent Tim's pictures of his deceased Plotts. Enough said.

1 hound killed towards Grand View couple of weekends ago.

Man, they are getting to be thick around there!

hunters can settle the score come oct

Here is the 2012 depredation list. The attacks are down because you no longer get reimbursed for the loss of your dog so most houndmen do not bother to report them any more.

Here is last years depredation list.

for the amount of wolves now here in wisconsin, the number of tags issued aren't going to put a dent in the numbers.
