Hunters, wolf experts speak out on confirmed depredations on western edge of county
From Antigo Daily Journal:
ANTIGO — On April 1, Gus Ullman was collecting sap for maple syrup on his hunting land north of the Ackley Wildlife Area. His wife was following behind in a truck and maybe 100 yards away, out of sight but still in earshot, Ullman could hear their one-and-a-half year old springer spaniel, Rosco, happily bounding through the woods.
The next moment, Ullman realized Rosco was barking. Then he heard him yelp. Guessing he might have just run into a porcupine, he started calling him. He had been training Rosco to bird hunt for months, and so when he didn’t return, Ullman knew something was wrong, and went back to the vehicle to grab a pistol.
