DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Howling For Wolves 2022 ActivitiesThroughout 2022, a representative of Howling For Wolves (HFW) participated in the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources's (DNR) Wolf Plan development. The HFW representative was a member of the DNR's advisory council intended to give feedback from the wolf advocacy perspective. This planning process involved multiple virtual meetings and 2 in person meetings. HFW reviewed the plan and provided written comments including suggested changes to the plan. Specifically HFW objected to having a wolf hunt within the Wolf Plan. In August 2022, HFW informed our supporters and members of the general public through paid media of billboards and social media posts and ads to direct people to comment in a letter from our website. The letter was directed to the Commissioner of the DNR and the Governor of Minnesota. There was a limited window of 2 weeks to provide feedback and we submitted 3500 comments. HFW also composed an official comment letter to the DNR's commissioner and posted on the HFW website. In July 2022, HFW devolped and advertised the "Wolf Forgiveness Bonus Program". The goal was to pay livestock producers if they agreed not to have wolves trapped in response to experiencing a livestock loss suspected as from a wolf. The goal was to be rapid and generous with our response in an attempt to reduce hostility toward wolves in general and reduce their deaths from livestock producers.On septmeber 18, 2022 Howling For Wolves Hosted a booth at "Veg Fest". HFW volunteers answered questions and gave out educational literature about wild wolves in Minnesota and the threats to their existence. The general public was informed about what can be done to recover the wolf species.--
