I don't understand why this isn't a story about 3 dead coyotes?  Is there a daily limit or something?

To hell with them wolves! And anyone who supports the WDFW for lying to all of us about wolf transplants!!!!

To the OP, thank you for being honest.  Alot here would not of just shot dirt..

You wolf lovers think hunting sucks now? Wait until these wolves take over like they did Idaho. 

I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

The Whiners suck!!

I read your account again.   Really the only thing I have to lecture you about is that you spent 4 rounds presumably of 5 and you have 3 wolves that could want to eat your bacon.   Other than that, I think you did good.   Crud photo or not, I'd love for you to post

Bone, I was wondering if anyone would catch that...  My wife wasn't too happy about it either!!
I normally have extra rounds with me, but didn't this time, won't happen again.

I  know of someone who saw a breading pair with 3 pups in that unit last year.  The female was grey with a collar and the male was black.

Welcome to oak creek feeding station folks, just sit back in the wagon while we visit the wolves. If you see an elk please let me know .

They were just passing thru obviously.   (insert sarcasm emoticon here)

I'm sorry but I'll never understand the logic behind people saying wolves are good for the ecosystem.  They have no natural predators and they reproduce at a much faster rate than the animals they kill. 

So, can one of the people that say wolves are good for the ecosystem please riddle me this; In the years to come when their numbers become much more substantial and they continue to only grow in population and the deer and elk numbers continue to dwindle at alarming rates, how then will the wolves be good for the ecosystem???  Remember, wolves never ever stop killing and the animals they kill have absolutely no defense against them.  So how can a perfect killing machine that never stops, continually reproduces at a considerabally faster rate than anything they kill,  be good for the ecosystem???  Please do tell!!!

And to the OP, kudos to you sir for having a moral conscience!!  Even if it went against what, some, choose to call the natural balance of the ecosystem.

I watched three wolves in the blues chase my Bull and his cows from last year for five full minutes. when I talked to the Game warden about it he told that they where just passing through. He said if there was a pack living in the era he would be hearing more reports, so obviously they where just moving through.
Nice guy but I don't like his kind of logic, unfortunately its going to get worse before it gets better.
