Wolves

Me too the really scary think is that this. wolf is the same kind that is running around the west and in washington

The wolves moving in from canada are not that big.  Around 75-85 lbs. for a mature animal.

I've read they get around 110-120 lbs for a big mature wolf... 75 sounds a little on the LOW side.  Hell my pitbull is 65 lbs and she's not very big...

The collared wolves in the methow pack were the alpha male and female.  They tipped the scales at 85 and 75 lbs.  So, wolves coming down from Coastal BC (the ones in the methow and so far in PO county) are not all that big.  The whole native wolf argument is not going to hold water in WA, becasue these are native animals.

Interesting I would've thought they'd be a bit bigger... either way they still eat a lot of deer/elk!

I never said anything about wolves not being native so I'm not sure if that comment is directed to me or not...  I agree with you there though, elk aren't native either and we're all in support of them...

The wolf my brother shot in the above picture went 180, i dont look that big skinned out, but their huge it was actually the Alfa Male of the Pack.. The Canadians want those things shot up.. They say if you here wolfs or see wolfs get a new hunting spot or start wolf hunting cause the moose are leaving the area.

  I am disappointed that any one on this site would remotely support wolves in washington wake the F@$( up have you seen what happened to the Idaho elk herd?  Sure they start with the sick and weak but there are only so many of them and next the hole herd is going down. My God its gonna be people like you that we have to thank when elk hunting and moose's huntting gets shut down state wide.    

            Its my opinion we need to fight like hell to get these wolves out of here if we as hunters are not united we will never succeed in anything.       
    Sorry didnt mean to be so harsh but this is a sensetive subject for me.

This is taken from a Delisting article in The Spokesman Review!!! They are talking about Idaho.

Wolf predation on elk has been a department concern. Liberal hunting seasons are planned for two units in the Clearwater area, where wolves have decimated an elk herd that was once world famous, Compton said. The cow elk population in the Clearwater was estimated at 10,000 in 1995, but has fallen to less than 3,200. Compton said wolves are responsible for nearly 80 percent of the mortality on radio-collared elk in the area.

“The elk are dying faster than they can replace themselves,” he said.

Stop them before it's to late in WASHINGTON!!!
