If you are talking about the timber wolf, Minnesota is not on a reintroduction list. We've always had them and there are a lot of them. I've seen them ice fishing, had them wander around on the inland lake where I have property, and even had one follow me when I was on snowshoes. There are far more than breeding pairs, there are many bona fide packs. There are not difficult to track as they run the hardened snowmobile trails in the winter in pursuit of moose. As far as Michigan is concerned, I am not sure. Northern Wisconsin has had several self-perpetuating packs for years also.

One of the problems here is they introduced the Canadian Grey Wolf,(150lbs) never native to this area. We had plenty of native Rocky Mountain Wolves(80lbs) that we dealt with fine. The Canadian wolves wiped out the Rocky Mountain Wolves. They violated the endanger species act.

What kind of bait did they use?

I saw one as I was driving out of upper MI last winter. Beautiful dark colored one. I know they've been multiplying, people up there who hunt have been seeing more and more of them.
