Tomorrow, July 1st, marks the beginning of the legal animal fighting free for all known as the bear hound “training season.” Thousands of hounds and hounders will descend on our public lands from all over the country with their trucks, bait, and thousands of GPS collared hounds to torment any wildlife that gets in their…

Anti-Wolf Facebook Page Allows Terroristic Threats Against Native Americans Following Night Hunting Ruling
As a wildlife advocate very few things shock me anymore. This weekend I was forwarded some screenshots of some racist, violent, and frankly terroristic level comments from an anti-wolf Facebook page with some of their fans threatening to kill and “scalp” Native Americans in response to the recent federal judge ruling legalizing night deer hunting. The commentators…
Fake “Patriots” and “Tyranny:” My Friday Evening Rant
This piece is not directly about wildlife but it is about the same type of people that are out to torment, torture, and kill it. As I got up this morning and looked at my news feed the top story was about another mass shooting in a movie theater. This time in Louisiana. As I…
The Real “Emotions” Dictating Wolf Policy in Wisconsin
One of the most important and misleading talking points among anti-wolf/wildlife factions is that advocates base their decisions and advocacy on “emotion” rather than “science.” The truth is that if any emotion is playing a dominant role in the wolf debate it is the emotion of hate and not the caring exhibited by wildlife advocates….

Inevitably whenever any advocate…
Another Wolf Kill Zone Goes Over Quota: Silence From DNR
“Screw the DNR. Keep shooting boys. .22 in the guts and watch em run. SSS.” The above comment was posted yesterday to the Facebook anti-wolf hate site “Wisconsin Wolf Hunting.” While ghoulish in it’s own right this comment is just a small taste of the bloodthirsty anarchy being fomented on that and the other anti-wolf…
Wisconsin DNR allows Almost Double Over Wolf Kill Quota in Zone 2 and at least 60 Killed Statewide Over Three and a Half Days
During Wolf Advisory Committee meetings this year the anti-wolf factions made it clear over and over again that they were out to kill as many wolves as possible. In fact this was state in the May 19, 2014 meeting notes: Hound hunters should organize and target packs killing hounds; to do so they need enough tags…
Wisconsin Canned Hunting Aficionado Attacks “Anti-Hunters” in Column
Every so often an article comes along that is so brazen, arrogant, or ignorant that a response is required. As a wildlife advocate I should be used to reading the ignorant blather that emanates from the various anti-wildlife hate pages plaguing the internet but an article that I read this week not only caught my…
