Stevens Co. Cattlemen Warn of Future Wolf Problems Like Wedge Pack

[KFhunter]

some of those pics you'll notice that a new dominate male has taken over, why I took the pics of the marking on random bushes.


WDFW shot the last dominate male, another took it's place, the pack lives on.

Come on you guys, do the math. WDFW knew they had 8 to 12 wolves in the pack and they only killed 6 or 7. Of course they know there are still wolves there. I'm glad to see proof like this getting out to the public that part of the pack is still there. Then when the cattle problems begin again we have proof that you have to take out the whole pack. 

Maybe the WDFW is a wolf in sheeps clothing, meaning they know what they are gonna do, but have to do it covertly to appease the libs ?

I posted a photo of a wolf taken last winter of a wolf on the east side of the unit. There has been wolves all over the GMU for several years, there was at least two packs in that GMU, the pack on the east side had pups 3 years ago. Lots of folks saw those wolves.

He had taken his place less than 30 minutes after the old one hit the lawn!
Wished we had a popcorn eating or a chair watching Smiley
Perhaps I should just go under ground and watch this develop.


Dale/ KF  you need  to get the photos to the Wolf Bio up there. He is interested in any info you may have or sounded like that when I talked to him this fall.

Dale took care of it already

I forwarded your photos to the Wildlife Commission and to Donny Martorello, whom I think is in charge of the wolf program now. Thanks for posting.

Found my pocket camera in my ammo bag.
So here is a photo of the wolf poo from the wedge unit after they had shot all of them.
This was just up the road from the Diamond M in Oct.

 I didn't take a pic with a handgun setting in the pile! 

But for referance the boot is a 10.5. Looks like who ever did this made several trips throught the buffet line.

[KFhunter]

You could have put it all in a ziplock baggie with a note saying "you missed one" and the GPS coordinates and mailed it WDFW.

[Ridgeratt]

Pretty sure they know it!!! Maybe more than one.

Not sure it would have all fit in a gallon bag.

Has McIrvin tried hugging the two new wolves? Perhaps he should bond with them by learning how to howl from Youtube. These poor people. This is only the beginning.

Are you sure that's wolf scat?  I would guess bear from the pictures.

It matched all the rest of the evidence along the road it was just the largest pile. It is also in the same area that last year had a tremendous amount as well.

If this was a bear they also had the trot's since there was almost a 1/2 mile of spots.

I just hope Washington wolves do not grow as big as these Wisconsin wolves 

[Killmore]

Oh yes they will!!!
