pictures of collared wolves in colville area
« on: March 09, 2010, 12:15:36 PM »
Has anybody heard about the wolves that some prominent guy said they got a picture of at the Colville Wolf Plan public meeting?  His report there was a suprise to the WDFW as they did not know of any collared wolves in the area.  I'll get a few pics up in one minute-

here are the wolves...both are clearly collared.  It's too bad he did not have the pictures at the meeting when he reported them.

I think they are somebody's huskys.
 :dunno:
the one in the back has a husky type tail...not a wolf tail.
hybrid pets at best.

I think the only beef those dogs will be eating is Alpo.

Can you believe that?!?!?   :P These dogs were really reported as wolves!  And the reporting party made a big deal about the "wolves" having collars on and that the WDFW must have known about that?...duh.   :chuckle: 

unreal.

that's the problem.  Too many reports like this one, and "real" reports meet skepticism because there have been too many lame sightings.

I should have known...

I expected to open this thread and see images of Wolfie's with radio tracking collars on them.

Not someone's friggin pet.  Looks more like Wolf bait, than a Wolf!

I did the same thing. Saw this post yesterday and thought I'd see some actual pics. Pretty obvious they were not wolves the moment I saw the pics. Too funny :chuckle:

This should give folks an idea of what the WDFW is dealing with and their reported "wolf sightings" from "people in the know"


they had collars, the effing WDFW is covering them up!! They obviously know about them...how would they have collars if they don't know? blah blah blah.....

 :chuckle:
they have collars to hook leashes onto.
 :bash:

The brown from the pic and the bushy tail makes them look like Akida's.
God Bless,

My thoughts too. ..these dogs look like they just broke free from a sled!  The WDFW is getting "reports" from people the "KNOW" they saw a wolf all the time.  This guy had the pictures in front of him and still though they were wolves...clearly, he did not know what he was talking about, even though he is a fairly prominant figure in the community.   :twocents:  sightings are helpful, but CONFIRMED or at least confirmable sightings are critical.  these pictures were very helpful to the bios!
