Adult female wolf was killed on Blewett Pass last week. Appeared to have been eating on a road kill deer. Judging by the mess I'm told it appears to have been hit by a semi.

There was a cow elk hit Saturday evening by the liberty cafe, I haven't heard of any wolfs involved, were did you get the information

:IBCOOL:

Good riddens.

Best thing I have heard all day! :tup:

:yeah:I'm sure we would have heard about that county wide. :dunno:
-
I think my BS-o-meter just pegged.
This would have made big news.
Seattleites would have held a vigil for it, and I didn't see a caravan of Subaru's go by.....
-
I don't know one way or the other, but Sooperfly is usually spot on with his info.
:dunno:

Heard from a police officer in the area confirming this.

:chuckle: Funny stuff there.

Confirming a wolf hit on Blewett?????
Tell me more..... I'm afraid to get my hopes up, but I'll gladly apologize to SOOPER if he broke legit news here.
-
Are you sure this is not the one hit on I-90 in idaho ? I think there is a post about this somewhere :dunno: I searched the whole internet and found nothen on this happening :dunno:
-
Funny. People didn't want to believe a wolf got hit on I-90 near Post Falls either. Why is this so hard to believe? Are wolves thought to be too smart to get run over by cars? Happens to deer all the time. Why not wolves?
-
Either way. One less wolf in ID and WA is great!

Wolf versus truck= bad news for wolf.

Personally I hope they all get hit :dunno: :chuckle: But you sure would think you could find something to confirm it :dunno:

It's not.

A thanks goes out to the driver Hope his rigs ok.

Nothing on the KPQ AM website about it yet.... :dunno:

Even if his rig has damage - it's still worth it! :chuckle:

But why?
Every time a deer or elk is hit by a car it does not make the news. I don't see why a wolf would be any different. Just doesn't seem to be that newsworthy to me. :dunno:

Really? Deer aren't the subject of an intensely dividing recovery effort, whereas wolves are. . . I don't know what the estimated numbers are for that specific area, but if it were 20 wolves or so, that'd be 5% of the wolf population there gone just like that. Wouldn't be one bit surprised if it made news. Actually more surprised if it didn't.
I remember a week or two ago a cougar was hit on I-5 near Woodland, that made the news. . . But a wolf, even more rare, wouldn't? :dunno:
-
I could see it making the news, sure. But just because it didn't, I'm not going to disbelieve that it actually happened.

lets all buy semis and go hunting. mike w

This is my official
I'M SORRY FOR DOUBTING YOU, AND I APOLOGIZE SOOPERFLY
post.
Sorry for doubting you, I just couldn't believe it happened and the news wasn't plastered everywhere.
-
Now, can someone please go over Blewett and hit the rest of them?
-
I just spoke to the local game warden and local law enforcement officers, its just another rumor gone bad, I drove over Blewett Friday evening and Sunday afternoon, I did see a lot of deer along the side of the road, eating the salt left over from the last snow storm, so its entirely possible that it could happen, some one might have picked it up thinking it was a road-kill pet
-
I'm going to drive over Blewett with elk meat strapped to my bumper!

I regularly drive by coyotes and deer. I often have to stomp and swerve to avoid the deer, and yet I can't manage to safely nail a yote with my rig. The predator eyes must help them survive.

:chuckle: That's hilarious, you should probably spray some cow elk scent of the your car as well to add to the realism.
-
I would paint my truck to look like a sheep but Houndhunter might get a little "frisky" with it hindering my ability to target wolves.
-
Kind of weird there isn't a pic of it floating around. Usually when something cool gets hit by a motor vehicle you usually see a pic of it. That's right It was probably a yote if you ask wdfw

Thanks for posting the link Dewey! :tup:
Judging by some of the previous posters comments....... is it so hard to believe that "breaking news" might be posted here first? :)
-
Heard about this a few days ago, and saw how many we're unwilling to believe y
Our post. New the real story would come out eventually!! lol! Not much left of the dog, but definetl
Confirmed.

Wow that is less than a mile from my gold claim Guess I'll be taking my varmint rifle with me when I go and stay at the claim for a couple of weeks. Maybe even take my e caller
-
A female down will slow the spread of the wolf infestation. I bet it was one of the "un documented" wolves the state is not tracking (that was an illegal immigrant joke if you didn't get it). I cant imagine what damage a wolf would do to a passanger vehicle. I hit a raccoon a couple weeks back going through Yakima on hwy 82 (doing 65) & it cost just under 1K in damage to my Honda.

Great news!

Yea, Honda would not be a good caliber for wolf.
-
It was a female!!! :IBCOOL:
-
Update - Another wolf road killed in the Blewett area. More news possibly soon.
-
Man that is just terrible! :chuckle:
-
:'(
-
I heard its really tough to shovel through asphalt. :chuckle:
-
That pretty much takes care of the entire pack doesn't it? :rolleyes:
-
They might have to put some "wolf crossing" signs up. This is terrible. Poor things. :'(

Sorry for the false alarm. >:(
They had the correct number of letters in the name, and it did have teeth. Just a bear. :chuckle:

:DOH:

Now how are we going to explain to our wives why we need a new Peterbuilt for hunting season.
-
Dead wolf, my day just got better!
-
Every dog has it's day, some are just bad ones I guess :tup:
-
I drove tow truck out of Cle Elum and i swear i saw a dead wolf on 97 in the fall of 2012 also near a dead deer, i hope they all try to eat road kill, and get plowed!!!!
-
I have to ask was this persons truck sick or old :chuckle:

:4w: :-X

Exactly!

It really does. There was probably only the 2 over there, and now with the female gone they have no hope. They just havent made it that far over yet successfully. :rolleyes: :chuckle:
