Wisconsin DNR officials have called off the state’s first wolf hunt since 2014.
The Natural Resources Board selected a quota of 200 wolves last week, and the public was able to harvest 119 animals with 81 allocated to the Ojibwe tribes as part of their treaty rights. The DNR says the hunt which began Monday had already reached half the statewide quota within 24 hours in all six hunting zones.
Zones 2, 5, and 6 will close to hunting and trapping Wednesday at 10:00 am.
