Wisconsin wolves bite the big one

Authorities are investigating the deaths of six federally protected gray wolves.

The suspected wolf killings compare with only one wolf killed in 2007, said Adrian Wydeven, a wolf biologist with the DNR. In 2006, nine wolves were killed during the season, he said.

Wydeven said that some wolves are killed by hunters who believe Wisconsin's wolf population is too high.

Some hunters just blast anything that moves.
