I don't know the whole story but it would seem that the whole world has time to video everything but cannot get involved with stopping/preventing said incident.
I'll bet that wolf could easily have been run off by just running out there after it especially with two other dogs there.

If it would have been after any of mine, there would have been a lot of dead wolf everywhere. :bash:

Those wolves on Vancouver island(Canis lupus crassodon);  are quite a bit smaller and less aggressive than the wolves we have now in WA.
   



Those of us living in rural areas will be building bus shelters, just like the folks down in southern states.

All I know is that I've seen wolves in two states.  I saw a pack on Prince of Wales island in AK a couple of years ago.  They were not near as large as the wolf I saw in Montana.  When I first saw the MT wolf, I assumed it was a deer.  It was heck of a lot bigger than the wolves I saw on the island.

Really? I know some folks in the Methow Valley who had to fire a 12 gauge at close range in order to get a black wolf off their dog. WDFW paid the vet bill, and it never hit the news.

Wow... pretty brazen.
I am not opposed to golf, for I suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering deer.

How anybody could pic up a camera in that situation instead of a firearm is beside me.

I hope this video gets posted all over the net.  Time to show the wolf lovers the cold hard truth!

Maybe Canadian gun control had something to do with the lack of bullets in that wolf.  Wouldn't work for the wolf in my yard I can tell you that.

I don't think I would fire to scare the aggressor away, I would fire for effect.  :bfg:

That wolf looked about half the size as your big Canadian grey.   Interesting.   As stated coming to a porch near you.

I don't care if you don't have a gun you have to go after that damn thing with a baseball bat then.
