The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is updating the state’s wolf management plan  PDF and is looking to the public for input.

To that end, the agency has selected members for a new wolf plan advisory committee to help inform the update to the management plan. The committee is one of several ways the DNR will engage with the public on the plan.

Wolf Plan Advisory Committee

Excerpted "Desired Outcomes..."

- Dialogue that results in a wolf plan that is publicly supported, support for wolf conservation and management and positive outcomes for wolf management in Minnesota.
- Shared understanding among members, DNR and the public on issues and potential solutions.
- Effective and well-supported recommendations to update the wolf management plan.
- Enhanced public-agency collaboration and partnership to support wolf management goals.

Excerpted "Authority..."

The group is not a decision-making body and has no authority on wolf management policy, research or operations. DNR may seek consensus recommendations from the group, which DNR will strive to incorporate into revisions of the plan along with dissenting views.
