Verified Wolf Threat in Rusk County
On 05/11/18, USDA-Wildlife Services verified a threat to human health and safety on privately-owned property located in the Town of Murry, Rusk County, WI. A single wolf was exhibiting little fear of humans by coming in close proximity to an individual after attempts were made to frighten the wolf away. The DNR and USDA-Wildlife Services will continue to closely monitor the situation.
Conflicts with wolves should be reported to USDA-Wildlife Services at 1-800-433-0663 in Southern WI and 1-800-228-1368 in Northern WI. The DNR partners with USDA-Wildlife Services to verify and manage wolf conflicts.
