OK--Don't get me wrong-I dislike wolves as much as anybody, but that still doesn't prove that the wolf killed the deer.  It might have been wounded and ran off to die elsewhere.  Wolves are opportunists like any other predator.  Why expend energy to chase someting down, when it's already there?

              got to agree with this guy.  freshish wolf tracks on snow that is burying an old rack with no carcass?  im not pro wolf by any means but come on, that pic doesnt prove the wolves killed it.  in fact saying those tracks prove its a wolf kill would just show poor tracking skills, general inability to read sign

You totally missed it, the wolf tracks are the issue here not the antlers!  A 100 plus pound wolf eats a lot of meat.  A whole bunch of 100 plus pound wolves eat a whole bunch of meat.  They were gone, now they're back, and they will continue to multiply and multiply, that's the issue, not whether they happened to kill this particular deer.

I chalk it up to cockroaches.  You see one, you stomp on it.  You trap you poison, you keep them at bay, coexistence is possible.   You set up a haven and protect them....THEN WHAT HAPPENS.
