Michigan dropped the gray wolf from its endangered species list during late April, but it’s uncertain what practical effect the move will have because of a continuing legal squabble over federal wolf policy.
The decision by the Department of Natural Resources is another milestone in the recovery of the wolf from near extinction in the upper Great Lakes region. Its Michigan numbers have risen steadily since the comeback began in the Upper Peninsula in the late 1980s.
