Wolves watching them as they investigate to see if it was wolves or not...and they say it wasnt!  What did they determine to be the animal that killed this cow?

Cows can die naturally while calving.

However, wolves will not bite the hair off the tail of a dead cow. Here's your sign wdfw

Well, how do we know for sure it was a wolf kill? Things can die for other reasons and then wolves can feed on the dead animal.

I'd wait and see what the experts have to say after the investigation is over, before calling someone an idiot.

Every single dead animal out there is not a wolf kill.

Didn't the rancher already say it was wolf?  What more of an expert could there be.  In a situation like this, a rancher carries far more clout with me than the WDFW could ever hope to.

What is the difference?

A wolf happening upon a dead cow and feeding to me is the same as a wolf killing a cow,  one will lead to the other.

Bobcat, the way you stick up for the WDFW on the wolf issue is commendable. I only hope you will feel the same way once wolves make it over to where you live and hunt. And make no mistake they will make it over there.

I think we have already heard what the experts had to say :chuckle: That would be WDFW who seem to think they have fooled everyone-oh and there's a coulple still on W-H, how do you spell stupid with a W?

Not sure I get your point. If a cow dies of natural causes, it's not a wolf kill. Apparently a "warden" said it wasn't a wolf kill. Whether it is or isn't, will probably make a difference as to whether the rancher gets reimbursed by the state, no?
