Wolf Pack Near Compound

I guess I was not seeing things this past winter behind the compound. So there is a pack of four wolves in the area. Sure glad a friend told us about this. It would of been nice to hear it from the WDNR first and a little sooner then June. They must like to keep things like this under wraps. 

"Peshtigo Brook Pack - Oconto County
On February 3rd, wolves from the Peshtigo Brook pack injured a hound while training on the Oconto County Forest. This is a new pack that established last winter and currently contains four wolves. Hunters and dog trainers should be aware of the potential conflict and should exercise caution within the caution area outlined on the map below.

Also, isn't it quaint that the WDNR uses the word "DEPREDATIONS"

From Dictionary.com

"dep·re·da·tion
   /ˌdɛprɪˈdeɪʃən/ Show Spelled[dep-ri-dey-shuhn] Show IPA
–noun
the act of preying upon or plundering; robbery; ravage."

Better give Berry Laker daughter a heads up when she brings their pup to the compound.
