North Bend wolf

[Naches Sportsman]

So sad.  If a wolf were to run out in front of me while driving, I would stop as fast as I could to eliminate the chance of hitting it. We need these creatures in the ecosystem to help control the elk population.

You are so right, wolves are wonderful creatures, not only are they cute and cuddly but they balance the ecosystem, make the aspen grow, and beavers flourish.

You love to troll don't you?

I mean on a real serious note, there is some humor coming out of this, almost certainly...

The REI/North Face type are going to have to start packing SOMETHING when they go hiking.  It'll only take a few wolf howls in the cascades to send them either back to their Subaru or to the gun shop.  I'm kind of looking forward to the "Seattle Reaction". 

I predict two things will happen.  1) There will be less hikers/backpackers in wolf areas, which is better for me.  2) Some portion of these people will turn into "gun people" aka my people.  It is going to be a fun dynamic to watch.

I don't like competing with wolves for natural resources, but I also don't like competing with Subarus, so its really just trading one for the other.  On the west side of the cascades, I think I'd rather have the wolves.

Confirmed.   DNA tests soon to determine where it came from.

There's another animal dead on the shoulder at mile 38.5 right now that looked a lot like a wolf.  Dark brown long legs.  It's pretty torn up, blood all over the road, so hard to say for sure. I hope it's another one.

So 2 wolves hit on I-90 near North Bend at 2 different times?

I wonder if its the same black wolf that I came face to face with at our cabin in cle elum a couple months back... I sure hope so!

See, see! Put them in the greenies' back yards and all of a sudden they're not so hot to protect 'em any more. The guy probably had Wolf Haven sticker on his bumper and some of that stinky fry oil in his tank!

This helps explain the other thread where the trapper from Monroe found that half-eaten goat. Wolf!

Is it illegal to place bait in the median?

Lol.
