Thanks for finding that. I was looking for it. Nice map of his travels. I like the two loops he made
my guess would be circling flocks of sheep

My guess is that the wolf walked across Koocanusa on ice

Didn't the same exact thing happen a couple years ago?
There was a lion that IIRC went from Washington to the Dakotas that was killed in the Badlands I believe

Pretty sure this is what you were talking about. Started in South Dakota, and was killed on a highway in Connecticut.

OR-7 went for NE Oregon to somewhere in California if I recall correctly. He has his own website.

OR sure seems to have a ton of wolves in the NE. :o Maybe some of them will disperse to Montana where they will have the same fate as that Huckleberry wolf. ;)

OR-28 (http://kval.com/outdoors/gallery/who-killed-wolf-or-28-reward-now-stands-at-20000#photo-2) was killed down in Southern OR earlier this month.Even the wolves don't want to hunt in Washington anymore. :yike:

No I think Steve Tormala told me about one that was killed in the Dakotas that had originated in eastern WA.
Correction:
I was wrong it originated in Montana and went about 250 miles and swam across Ft Peck Reservoir on the way.
