Hunters find out if they get permit for this year's wolf hunt

Posted:

MADISON (WKOW) -- Hunters will find out Wednesday whether they will get a permit to take part in this year's wolf hunt.

The DNR says it received nearly 20,000 applications from people wanting to participate.

This year's wolf hunt is set to begin October 15.

It is still up in the air whether hunters will be allowed to use dogs. A Dane County judge issued a temporary injunction halting the use of dogs for hunting wolves.

Almost 1,200 people will be selected for permits.
