Oh wow.
I was in GMU 121 last weekend myself. Looking back, I am glad I had my glock 20 on my hip at all times.

I think a wolf looks at me the wrong way I’m gonna feel threatened plus I would never call the WDFW   They would probably attempt to prosecute any case in Unless the wolf was Actually physically on top of you 🙄

If it would have been wolf predation on livestock, it would have taken a few days.......and then they would have a meeting with their fake environmental partners etc..........

Do to a "sudden wolf migration" in 2009-2010 we along with several other folks were having problems with wolves around our homes, killing chickens, killing livestock, attacking dogs etc., so I met up with one of WDFW LEO's I asked him how close a wolf had to get before I should shoot it, he said if the wolf looked like it was interested in me, that a hundred yards would be a good distance to start at.

I talk to another LEO who said, if you have to shoot a wolf, lay down in front of it and put one in the chest.

As we saw with the lady treed by wolves a while back, WDFW will protect their wolves above all else.

Almost forgot about that incident wolfbait!

I try to be fair toward WDFW because I know they get hammered from all sides, but that was completely inexcusable.

25 yards?  I'd make sure my footprints were closer to the wolf than that before calling it in.  (I shoot a revolver so no shell casing landing). 

Why open oneself up to questioning the validity of the self defense.  Make it look much closer.

Wolves usually run in presence of humans, especially if the wolf is alone.  So can't really fault this guy for firing.

Any idea where at in 121?  We have pics of two on our property.....open carry is the rule of the land when my family yikes for that very reason. 

Scary stuff to hear wolves are not even remotely affraid of humans.
