DNR Report:  Wisconsin Wolf Population May Be Stabilizing

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources says more data must be collected over the next few years to confirm the appearance that the state’s wolf population is stabilizing.  Volunteer trackers put the winter wolf count at between 900-and-950 animals.  The official goal is 350.  The U-S Fish and Wildlife Service says the data it is collecting could result in a formal proposal to remove wolves from the list of endangered species.  They were removed once before — in 2011 — but a federal judge reversed it three years later.

Federal Funding Approved, But Much Less Than Requested

The state of Wisconsin will receive 160-million dollars from Wash9ington to expand Interstate-94 near the location of the new Foxconn Technology plant in Mount Pleasant.  That’s 86-million less than the governor had requested.  Interested parties like the Transportation Development Association of Wisconsin are asking where the rest of the money is coming from.  The widening and rebuilding project for I-94 is expected to have a price tag of about 500-million dollars.  Wisconsin had hoped the federal money would cover about half of the expense.
