Congress has abdicated its duty on gray wolves, and Minnesota’s DNR has stacked the deck against any hunting season. House Republicans have repeatedly passed bills to delist wolves and return management to the states. Those bills die in the Senate. Courts keep blocking administrative delisting. The result is permanent federal restrictions on a species that recovered decades ago. Minnesota’s wolves long ago exceeded every Endangered Species Act recovery goal. Congress still re

Senator Amy Klobuchar’s Game Fair forum appearance offered political theater, not straight talk, on two issues critical to Minnesota hunters and rural residents: the Game and Fish Fund and wolf management. On the Game and Fish Fund, she spoke of “making sure the money gets spent” and putting more officers in the field. Yet she ignored the core problem: the DNR director and chief financial officer do not prepare budgets or management plans for any Game and Fish Fund accounts.

A Guest Column on Transparency and Accountability The Minnesota DNR’s July 30 response to a May data request on wolf-allocation funds exposes a pattern of evasion, contradiction, and mismanagement that should alarm every hunter, taxpayer, and wildlife advocate. When asked for research reports, phase reviews, and expenditures under Minnesota Statutes § 97A.075 for FY25–26, the agency claimed the final 2024–2025 wolf survey was “still being finalized.” That is false. The comple

Every spring the Minnesota DNR runs its annual public service campaign: if you find a fawn alone in the woods, leave it there. It is not abandoned. Its mother will return. The agency spends real resources reminding Minnesotans that well-meaning interference kills more fawns than it saves.

Minnesota Hunters Deserve Answers on Wolf Fund Spending A Guest Column on Transparency and Accountability Every time a Minnesota deer hunter buys their license, fifty cents goes into a special account. It's not much per person—but across 500,000 hunters annually, that adds up to roughly $250,000 a year. That money sits in what the Minnesota DNR calls the "Wolf Allocation Fund", supposedly earmarked for wolf management, research, and monitoring. Here's the problem: most of us

The global gray wolf population is estimated to be 300,000 and growing. Once abundant over much of North America and Eurasia, the gray wolf inhibits a smaller portion of its former range because of widespread destruction of its habitat, human encroachment of its habi

The plan can be viewed at https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/wolves/wolf-plan.html “Today, wolves are distributed across half of the state in numbers of 2,700, well above the endangered species act recovery plan goals of 1.250-1400.” Twice the Recovery Goal! “Some readers might be surprised to find that this pl

First off, please review this news clip. https://www.kbjr6.com/2022/02/18/kbjr6-special-report-inside-intense-project-aimed-preserving-minnesotas-moose/ Forty years ago, the only wolves in MN were found in moose country, in and around the BWCA, which always had low deer numbers. Blaming the deer for migrating into Moose country bringing wolves with them sounds like BS. Quite the opposite, the wolves were confined to this remote area because of an open season on them, and t
