Last summer I was vacationing in Northern Michigan. We were sitting around a camp fire. It was close to midnight. Suddenly there were howls out in the distance. It was scary. I looked at my wife's uncle (who works for the Department of Natural Resources) and asked: "Coyotes,?" He said: "Nope, wolves." After considering that for a moment, my wife suggested we all "turn in" for the night. We did.

Officially, no wolves. the western part of the state probably could sustain wolves. Twenty five years ago, there were no coyotes, bear, or rattlesnakes east of the Alleghenies. Now we got them. wildlife is making a strong comeback.
