Wolves in Wisconsin
Join wildlife biologist Richard P. Thiel for an engaging exploration of Wisconsin’s wolves—past and present. This presentation will trace the natural history of the species, examine the ecological principles of predation specific to wolves, and offer a thoughtful overview of wolf management in Wisconsin. Beginning with the bounty era of the 1920s–1950s, Thiel will illuminate the evolving relationship between humans and wolves across decades of policy, perception, and conservation.
Presented by Dick Thiel: Dick Thiel led Wisconsin’s timber wolf recovery project (1980–1989), helped draft the state’s Wolf Recovery and Management Plans, and remains active in wolf education. He’s authored key books on wolves and conducts annual ecology workshops through Timber Wolf Information Network, advocating for fair understanding of this often-misunderstood predator..
