Wisconsin Conservation Congress group passes hound/wolf resolution
From OutdoorNews.com:
Milladore, Wis. — The possibility of using trailing hounds to move wolves away from farms and other problem areas in Wisconsin cleared its first hurdle when the Conservation Congress wolf study committee passed Corky Meyer’s resolution with just one dissenting vote. Meyer, who passed away earlier this year, had been a strong conservation advocate for decades.
Meyer, a hound hunter, had been working on a citizen resolution to allow the use of trained hounds to target specific wolf control situations when he passed away. Meyer’s resolution, presented by his daughter, Tashina Peplinski, was the only citizen resolution before the committee during its meeting at the George W. Mead State Wildlife Area.
