lol, I wonder how many voted fake photo, I fixed it.

h20hunter · « **Reply #4 on:** July 25, 2018, 02:33:57 PM »

I still voted fake. No such thing as woofs having any impact. What woofs?

CedarPants · « **Reply #5 on:** July 25, 2018, 02:34:15 PM »

It's pretty obvious they are just frolicking in a meadow together playing an innocent game of tag

Jonathan_S · « **Reply #6 on:** July 25, 2018, 02:35:45 PM »

Incredible capture.

Poor bull was just sick or weak and didn't realize it...dead.

bearpaw · « **Reply #7 on:** July 25, 2018, 02:40:00 PM »

If you zoom in on the photo you can see the tongue hanging out on the bull and it looks like the hind quarter has been bit and is bleeding.

Story I got is that a local guy got this with his trailcam. Do you have other info?

rasbo · « **Reply #11 on:** July 25, 2018, 03:00:49 PM »

Pretty sure those are Canadian cattle dogs rounding up elk for tagging purposes

Jonathan_S · « **Reply #12 on:** July 25, 2018, 03:05:25 PM »

I hope that bull got in a few good licks before being eaten alive

Thanks for the pm, I modified the original post so it's more accurate either way.

Pretty sure I seen a wolf in the bethel unit last weekend, looks like its not just the young and sick that get eatin

Timberstalker · « **Reply #15 on:** July 25, 2018, 03:31:54 PM »

Send that to the law. They will do something about it, quickly.

But thats what they will tell us and that is what they want us to believe, that its pretty much the sick and dieing that are targets of wolves. I actually had a WDFW guy tell me that over in the Methow, he said they target "compromised" prey animals and the young, well at least for the "young", they are the future of our herds and as for the "compromised"....what a crock

...I think thats a dead elk unfortunately, but like some have said, hopefully he got in a couple good kicks and maybe broke a jaw or put an eye out of one of those D@#$ things!

Aren't you allowed to shoot a dog chasing and harassing wildlife?

Tounge is hanging out. Tired. Probably dead

I’ve seen hard horned bulls make it through worse with my own eyes.

The Caption says Northern Idaho, your allowed 5 wolf tags last time I bought one, Now everyone knows where to go to get a wolf, Go clean them out, what you waiting for?

pianoman9701 · « **Reply #22 on:** August 13, 2018, 02:10:59 PM »

I wonder which he was, sick or old, or both. Wolves don't kill healthy bull elk. Anyone with an ounce of patchouli oil knows that.

I'm more concerned about the giant rabbit in the background behind the black wolf!

Come on guys you know they are coyote and they don't bother deer and elk. Nothing here just a l
Photo chopped picture of some ones pet famliy dogs chasing in a family cow.
There are no documented wolves in that area like there are no.undocumented people hanging around home depot parking lots at 7 o clock in the morning.

dpete · « **Reply #26 on:** August 13, 2018, 05:02:38 PM »

If it was only 2 wolves, maybe still alive, but how many more were chasing him. I would say if there were even 1 or 2 more wolves hes dead for sure.

Pathfinder101 · « **Reply #27 on:** August 13, 2018, 08:59:41 PM »

If it were a single wolf I'd give the edge to the bull. That looks like probably a pack.

Statistically, I believe the answer to the original poster's question is without a doubt "Yes." But he may not be.
