I was really hoping that they would have moved out by now.  :( Band, NO dogs would be up where I was at and I would almost agree that some people would mistake a coyote for a wolf, but considering that I've hunted coyote's for at least 10 yrs there is a big difference between the two.

Try telling that to the guy who shot this coyote...


Didn't they confirm that one with DNA  :dunno:

OK everybody get ready to laugh, I saw a Wolf on the Hancock Mainline about a 1/2 mile in from the Buckley Gate, When I first saw it I thought It was a Deer with bad hair loss because of the dark shoulders and rump and light middle, Took me a second before I spotted the Tail and realized what I was looking at, It was pretty dam big but it was Skin and Bones I don't think it made the winter. I talked to the Game Dept and they said they had some reliable reports. A couple miles away there is a place with a bunch of wolf-dog crosses in pens, I assume this one got away and couldn't feed itself. I caught allot of flack when I told the fellas at Work what I saw.

For those of you who have any doubts of whether it is a wolf or not, look at the tail, if it is a wolf it will be long and thick and will not be held to far off the ground. The wolves I have seen have a big block head, but the tail is a dead give away. ;) I ran a wolf off a doe and a fawn last spring, and it was skin and bones, I had my doubts even at close range because it was so skinny, it was three times the size of a coyote and the tail is what gave it away. The way they run is different than a dog or coyote also, it's more of a long lope. These wolves are not afraid of people, as many have been finding out.

There are wolves in B.C. Idaho and Oregon why wouldnt we have them here. They are everywhere in this state just like Idaho, relatives there. And yes they are not afraid of humans, my brother in law and friends had 7 of the nasty buggers hunting them until a few were belly shot,best medicine for them.

I took this picture in the teanaway last fall miles from any road, it was right after a hard rain so the ground was soft, just one large set of dog tracks walking down a old road, aprox. 3  miles in, no human tracks around, what do you think?

So you're posting on the world wide web for all the world to see that your brother in law and his buddies gut shot some wolves here?
 Thats either not the brightest thing in the world to do or it's B.S.

or the guy that saw this wolf...it even had a "tracking collar"

Did the guy that posted those pics ever come back to the site?  Or did he get so embarrassed that he just left for good?  :dunno:

May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

I believe Run is correct, they said it was Coyote not wolf,

There are no wolves accept the ones that WDFW says there are, that is the law. What you think you see, and even if you photograph it, you are mistaken. If you shoot it to prove it, you are a criminal, if you trap it, you are a criminal, if you harass it, you are a criminal, and yes, it did not exist in the first place.

Like our State and Federal deficit, the decimating ungulate herds across the West will magically just grow themselves out of the current downward spiral they are in.  :rolleyes:

Meanwhile, special interest groups will get millions of our tax dollars to line their pockets and there is nothing we can do about it.
