Caution areas “When wolves attack dogs in hunting or training situations, the DNR creates ‘wolf caution areas' to warn hunters that a specific pack has attacked a dog or group of dogs,” explains Adrian Wydeven, DNR biologist and wolf expert. “We encourage bear hunters to exercise greater caution if they plan to train hounds or hunt bear with hounds near any caution area, especially if they are near an actual kill site and for pet owners near a kill site to keep close tabs on their pets.” Details of wolf attacks on dogs and caution area maps are available on the DNR website along with additional wolf information and suggestions for avoiding unwanted contact with wolves. Since Jan. 1, 2010 wolves have killed 12 and injured seven dogs. Eight of the fatal attacks have been on trailing hounds since opening of the bear trailing hound training season on July 1.
