Are Wisconsinites wary of wolves? A study from UW-Madison researchers found an increasingly negative view of the animal by state residents. The study published in an upcoming issue of the journal Conservation Biology shows a declining tolerance of wolves, even if those surveyed had no intimate contact with a wolf. The study was by environmental studies professor Adrian Treves and colleagues Lisa Naughton-Treves and Victoria Shelley, according to a news release from the UW-Madison news service.
