Len McIrvin explains the attack was confirmed by 9 LEO all standing together in concensus, including the sherrif's dept which has had training in identifying wolf attacks and WDFW officers.

He states that the WDFW will not allow it to be reported as a wolf attack yet. The report has to go through the state office (for a political decision) to determine if it can be considered a wolf attack.

McIrvin says there are so many more wolves than what the state is reporting to the people and claims WDFW knows it.

Say it aint true, we're not being told the truth about the number of wolves in WA?

I feel bad for you guys in Stevens Co., but it won't be long before we're all in the same boat.

Until fall roundup McIrvin's really have no idea how many cattle are actually missing. This report is of another calf that was found severely wounded but still alive. Last year McIrvins were missing about 2 dozen cattle at roundup including some large bulls.

I thought wolves only ate deer and elk and moose.....

I was told they detest mutton and beef!!!!!!!!!!!!!   :dunno: :dunno: :dunno:

Maybe they just need hugs.. 

After all, they would never attack a person or a domestic animal....   :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

That sucks.  Some wolves just cannot behave.  I hope the WDFW responds quickly

Its a shame , for what ever reason, the LEOs dont have the gonies to stand up and be counted....tell the truth you guys !!!!!!!!  Im sure they all fear it will kill their careers, and probably rightly so.  I just cant see how they can sleep at night with this on their minds.  They know right and wrong, but wont speak out.  Some say cant, but thats a total cop out....they can speak out , but will probably pay a price.  Its all part of a political agenda/end run that is being rammed down our throats.......and our LEOs are allowing it to happen.    If they can stand by and watch this happen, what else are they capable of ?????????   :twocents:

I'm not sure what the current tally is on confirmed depredations, but I am sure there are conversations being had about removing this whole pack as we type. On top of being barely over the border from Canada, the pack is in what is most likely the highest density wolf country in the state right now. Politically, the main reason for waffling on the decision is because it could end up being the first entire pack removed in the state since recolonization.
Which side are you on if neither will claim you?
