Wolf Kill

Tuesday night wolves kill a doe three miles below Twisp in a residents yard, and ate most of it. WDFW picked the remains up Wednesday confirming the doe as a wolf kill.

Wolfbait aren't these the wolves that are suppose to be up in the wilderness right now chasing the deer that live in the high country? Not in town during the summer because there scared of humans. I guess there was a reason the wolf trapper for the state put his traps up a couple hundred yards behind someone's house early this summer.

All hunters need to be carrying a shovel in their truck just in case they run across fire.  It's the responsible thing to do

WDFW's same old lying BS. Wolves are where the deer are, and the deer live in town or in peoples yards. I was talking to a guy last night who said there were 16 bucks that lived in Twisp all summer, he said he has pictures of them.



I met a W-H member hunting up here this week, he said he hunted all day up Cub cr area, no deer but lots of wolf tracks and crap. 

WDFW continue to spew how sucessful deer season's have been and how great they will be this year, despite more wolves and a major cougar problem.

Scott Fitkin can sit in the office all day and write reports, but the facts on the ground tell a differrent story as fewer hunters show up every year. Remember when IDFG touted the great elk hunting as fewer and fewer hunters showed up each year to the point that they couldn't give elk tags away, once again welcome to the Methow Valley.

Lol, of course. Fire is a real and present danger.

I always figured wolves were different than every other animal species on earth in that they like to work harder for their food.  I too thought they would prefer to live in the high country and chase mature bucks instead of eating does and labrador retrievers.

I was reading some articles about elk harvest in MT and ID right about the time they opened up the wolf seasons.  The articles were printing numbers for higher harvest/success of elk in those states.  All the hugger comments were along the lines of 'see wolves are improving the herds' .  The bios were using old counting methods to assume that the number of animals killed were proportional to animals overall.  Turned out in reality there were few elk overall in the state, but the wolves drove all the elk close to humans so the humans weren't having to go so far into the woods to find elk.

This was taken out the truck window in Northern MN about 200 yards from our hunting land entrance.
They are plentiful and bold there.
