MARQUETTE - A state bill aimed at designating gray wolves a game species and authorizing an open season in Michigan is on its way to the full Senate for consideration.
 
Senate Bill 1350 was introduced by state Sen. Tom Casperson, R-Escanaba, in October and was reported out of the Senate Committee on Natural Resources, Environment and Great Lakes Thursday on a 5-2 vote, recommending that the bill be passed.
