Title: Wolf hit on I 90 in Post falls idaho
Post by: washingtonmuley on April 20, 2013, 09:19:36 PM
I just got a phone call from my brother as he was traveling through Post falls and he saw a wolf that was hit on I 90. He pulled over to confirm and was going to take a picture but an off duty police officer would not allow him to take a picture. I wish my brother would have snapped the photo . Oh and yes my brother does know the difference between  a coyote and a wolf.

Why is this so hard to believe? I don't get it. There are lots of wolves in Idaho. I believe the story even without a picture to prove it.

Not hard to believe as I have seen tracks and heard them howl just south of spokane.

last thing they need is a bunch of gawkers stopping to snap pics on an interstate - emergency stopping only.

Don't give bad advice people!

Really? Maybe it is that he was taught to respect authority whether on or off duty. I guarantee you he was not bullied. Sounds like another *censored* starter!!!!!!!!

If your going to "assert" your rights you'd better know them.

The brother is lucky he didn't get a citation for stopping on a limited access highway for a non emergency.
Doesn't matter which state either, this is federal and state adopted IE: INTERSTATE highway.

Don't have to read the laws for this state if it was in Post Falls.  Wrong state, either way who cares if he got a pic?  Another one down, won't slow their spread unfortunately

The cop, om duty or not, does not have the authority to tell you what you can take a picture of, or not.  That has been through the courts...if it had been me I would have taken a picture of the wolf first, and then the cop.

I am from Post Falls so this is concerning of course. There is very few locations where a Wolf could make it through to I-90 without going through a populated area... only area is right around the back side of the falls. Did he mention where on I-90 he saw it?

  When the alpha female is killed many other females breed that she wouldn't have let. At least that's how I understand it.

I've heard that will be the case if it happens right before breeding season.  But that should have happened a couple months ago.  They are getting ready for pups soon.  So there should be a new alpha female by next breeding season and no pups for this year for that pack.

He's a sheeple because he respects law enforcement officers?

Hopefully you would have captured the moment he was writing you a ticket for stopping on the freeway when you're not supposed to.

LMAO :chuckle:

Honestly, who really cares that a wolf was hit on the interstate?  In the grand scheme of things it's insignificant.  It's certainly not getting a $140 ticket over for stopping on the interstate.  Of course, one could always start the camera on their I-phone and scream about their rights as they are getting arrested for obstructing an officer. :o

two summers ago just east of Lookout pass in Montana i saw one eating on a dead deer west bound side of road in the ditch, thought it was a black bear untill it moved around for better bite of food. I would have stopped and got pictures if i had been on west side.  :tup:

Now that's just funny.

Meanwhile, be careful what kind of advice you take from internet lawyers about "asserting your rights".   That's how people learn expensive lessons.
