James Hammill
His talk will be entitled THE WOLF IS AT THE DOOR, NOW WHAT? In this talk, he will briefly describe the expansion of wolves in the upper midwest since the first Earth Day celebration, describe the protections given under the endangered species act and discuss what options may be available IF wolves are delisted, which is what is being proposed by the USF&WS. He will try to bring in as much real world experience with wolves that he can in the talk.
Jim retired from the Michigan Dept of Natural Resources in November of 2002 after serving 30 years as a wildlife biologist for MDNR. In the last 10 years of his work, he had the opportunity to work directly with the recovering wolf population of the UP, serve on the Mich wolf recovery team, and the federal wolf recovery team (on which he still serves). He has started a consulting business called Iron Range Consulting and Services Inc. Their main focus is to provide private landowners with timber management and wildlife management recommendations. He has also contracted with the National Wildlife Federation to try to locate wolves in the Northeastern US.
