I have heard of biologists going in and howling trying to locate some. So someone thinks there is some in there. It would not suprise me at all.

Hopefully they are monitoring with a high power rifle with at least a two mile minute of angle accuracy!

I have heard a couple cattle ranchers have seen a pair in the Simcoes while they were gathering up their cows. This was a couple years ago.   :bash:

Seen Wolves up in the Ewe Neck out of Tampico this last Elk season. Had one at 65 yards broadside.

There are guys that use allotments within the southern part of the rez for summer range. One of them might have enough pull with tribal officials to get confirmation on whether or not this is accurate.
Which side are you on if neither will claim you?

A tribal member that I know that works for wildlife with the tribe is monitoring seven of them somewhere on Satus.   He is quite reliable in my book.

I would be shocked if this is true. Seven assumes they bred successfully for 1 or even 2 years. I would have thought there'd be more info coming through the grapevine if that was the case.

They have been there years.  I saw my first one  S.E of Fort Simcoe back in the mid 80's.

I've really wondered about that. There are so many horses on that reservation you would think a number of predators could survive just on the carrion alone.
