Title: Saw a central Washington Wolf this weekend
Post by: BearCreekCookBook on March 20, 2018, 02:58:20 PM
He was not far from the road and didn't spook until my brothers bike was within 20 yards. He jumped the creek, ran a log and then I got the video camera on him.

Doesn't look like he's missed too many venison meals.

Correct, but it didn't affect the deer or elk population according to WDFW, so we are good.

Nice footage. Unfortunately, that's a rare sight that will become more and more common

Are you going to show this to the WDFW, not that I think it will make difference, but at least they couldn't say it wasn't there.

It'll be here, it's not going anywhere, and rest assured....they'll see it here if nothing else.

I reported it, its not the 1st time we've seen wolves in the general area and there is a lot more than one.

Nice capture! We saw one similar to that 6-7 yrs ago on the 328 side of Nanuem Ridge.

Glad OP had more restraint than me... might not have been a video... Might have been more like.. wolf? what wolf?

Good thing your camera battery went dead "right before the gun shot"! :chuckle: That was a coyote standing directly in front of the wolf, wasn't it?

Fresh tracks again the past few days... along with one impressive set of cougar tracks! Those poor elk! 🙈
No kills located... aside from an older elk carcass with the antlers sawed off. Lots of ridgetop traveling for those dogs though. Sure would make a pretty photo, Plat. 😝

Who doesn't like sunset walks thru the forest, the cool mountain breeze whipping thru your hair and a nice coyote or cougar (either cougar works  :chuckle: ) pelt to keep you warm.

Wolves with that color coat are usually from the Teanaway pack. Last I checked there were 11 total in that pack.

They hang out in 335 and 328. I've seen them up in the Navaho Peak basin, Miller Peak basin, and have heard that they even end up in the ALW during the summer. They are in 328 most of the winter and early spring according to the bio in charge of tracking the collared pack members.
