Our MI DNR idiots want to spend the licensing $ that fund their way large salaries to transplant a MN wolf population to Isle Royale, in Lake Superior- why? Because the resident Moose population there is destroying all the marshland vegetation found on that remote island, and wolves enjoy a nice moose dinner whenever they can kill a cow -and her young-- predators are predators- to use them to control a game animal species that may have over-populated an area is insane. Open up the hunting regs. on moose is one possible answer.
We don't encounter moose in this part of MI-- some elk reside in the Pigeon River forest tract up near Vanderbilt- but we do get coyotes- My favorite coyote "medicine" is a 55 grain Hornady ballistic tip from my scoped SAKO L59 BA in .243Win-- put one of those in a coyote's boiler room- devastation to the 9th degree-
For wolves or Black Bear-- either of my scoped pre-War M70's, 30-06 or .300 H&H-- 180 grain Core-Lokt-- I wish they offered a bounty on coyotes here- they invade the suburbs and kill domestic pets- and they seem to get bolder (until hunters start to get busy putting an end to their bad habits..
