    DNR releases results of multi-year remote camera survey of wolves in the Upper Peninsula

    Researchers used remote camera surveys to estimate Michigan's wolf population in the Upper Peninsula for the first time. The survey provided monthly estimates demonstrating lower counts during late winter and higher counts in the fall when pups are active.
