We had NO worries about wolves camping and growing up there. wow.
Marquette, 's quite the place *sigh*.....
I originate from NW Wisconsin and likewise never worried about wolves (until now). The wolf population from Minnesota across N Wisconsin has increased a lot in the last 15 years, so much so that they have been removed as a protected species in that area.
I would like to bike/camp on the Tuscobia State trail which goes through the heart of wolf country in Wisconsin. When I do that I may have to take wolves into consideration and not do it alone and take bear spay with me.
