Wolfplant? Who Is This Man With The Drugged Wolf?

[bearpaw]

THIS HAS BEEN PROVEN FALSE, READ Page 4 OF THIS THREAD

This picture was released on Wolfwatch 2:

This is a picture taken in the Kings Lake, Wa. area. and sent to me. A guy I know was driving up the road to see me, and he saw this "wolf plant" occur. Who is he, and who does he work for?

more info

I just transfered this picture to my computer after having it on my phone for a year and a half. This was an amazing fluke, I received this. The guy who sent it to me said he just walked up on this guy. The man said he was releasing a wolf, and after he heard that, he sent this to me.

Kings Lake, Eastern Washington. It's about an hour North of Spokane. Near the border of Idaho. Directly West of Priest Lake.

There is a reason this guy is there with a wolf, and someone is funding the effort.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO THE MAN IS?

DOES ANYONE KNOW THE STORY?

THIS STORY COULD BE SIGNIFICANT!

(some comments recieved)

These wolves are being chipped instead of collared. That way the Fish and Game can deny the release. I will post this pic on the taxidermy site I am on and see if someone knows him. Sounds to me lik...e another illegal wolf release and this guy should be held accountable for it. To the best of my knowledge Washington has not agreed to any wolf introduction but hey, tahts what they did with us on wolves and grizzlys....they were introduce 3 to 4 years in moderate numbers before any agreement was made.

I'm looking at that picture and that is a forest service issued shirt he has on. Montana forest service has not been able to give department issued clothes away here for over 10 years. They have to shread unused surplus and damaged clothing so he has to work for the US forest service.

If you know what region that is in you may find your culprit here. I kind of specialize in tracking down people on the net but this will be a tough one without at least 1 piece of information. If you have anything that may or may not look like a lead, post it and I will see what I can do.

I am searching logo images right now trying to match up that logo on his hat. I would like to say, I just can't understand why he is not in full uniform but I think we all know why he is not. Just noticed this logo as someone we would like.

The boots are interesting as well. They have the look of a well worn pair of boots that are well broke in and have seen some miles, but they in no way match the clean denim jeans. To me that repesents some one who had some driving to do in a cleaner vehicle. It might be a strech but it's what I see. The hat still is puzzling, wish it was just a bit clearer.

this is the first time i have ever heard about it or seen the picture.

[quadrafire]

Definately drugged and not dead. Look at the Pupils (no dialation). I have not seen nor heard of this photo.

[bearpaw]

Notice the tongue, I have been involved in a couple tranquilizings of animals by agents, that is exactly what happens....

There is some speculation, could this be someone from wolf santuary or whatever it's called?

Another comment has been that the person is a Forest Service employee, don't know if that is true, but there is a reason this guy is there with a wolf, and someone is funding the effort.

[quadrafire]

Can you read his hat?? Maybe it says "save the wolf"

[carpsniperg2]

no idea on the guy. but that wolf is druged for sure.

[bearpaw]

Wolfbait, has this guy been seen in the Methow?

[denali]

don't know but I'll have some of what he had.           J/K

[sisu]

Maybe the wolf was hanging around a meth cooker or a pot grower. Hahahaha

[wolfbait]

Wolfbait, has this guy been seen in the Methow?

I will check around Dale, I have some friends who work for WDFW I will see what they have to say also.

[Gringo31]

I did some google wildlife staff photos and came up with nothing....

But, I'm not putting the story together very well.  Some guy was driving down a road, saw a wolf plant and this guy posed for the picture???  IF that is the case, no vehicle info, logos etc?

[Mookie]

Wolf plant? How long before they are ready to pick?

No Collar

Maybe I can't see it but it should have a collar on. 

[bearpaw]

I don't see any collar and the guy is not in a uniform. I heard about this photo a few months ago but just got it today. I don't understand why the guy posed with the wolf either other than maybe he was caught red-handed so tried to act official. Just don't add up does it.
