They definately have been eating "Too Well". Good for those guys. Hopefully they get the MAXIMUM number of wolves that are allowed per their hunting regulations each year.

Definitely a shame that he isn't a reason why they are the size that they are.

Some of the wolves here in Montana are HUGE. No doubt some of them stand shoulder high above my waist. Can't wait to shoot one. And the wolves are in areas that FWP says they aren't.

I've actually released a wolf and a fox from leg traps. They were quite docile and departed without incident. Wounded, but appreciative, actually, or maybe more understanding that I was not going to inflict more pain. They were damaged, but not too severely, had not been trapped long. One fox I found in a trap I had to kill with my bare hands, had no weapon with me... he had almost chewed through his leg. I petted him for a while and then choked him to death. Not a pretty thing to do. I took the traps in to the Game Warden and requested the name of the owner, but of course, they were unregistered.
I fully understand the need for control of species and am sypathetic with ranchers and farmers whose livestock is killed...it can be a devastating cost. But... no animal deserves to die in a trap. If you ever look in their eyes, you won't think so either.

Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.
There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living |

Here in WV your traps must have a metal tag attached w/your name and address. Traps must be checked just before daylight to avoid just what Kickboxer described. Sadly some guys who call them trappers get lazy. I use to enjoy it until the bottom dropped out on prices(got so bad you couldn't sell some hides). Still have my gear and may try it again as prices are climbing. It's not something for everyone but needs done.

I've never been up close and personal with a wild wolf, but I'm not sure those pics are legit. They just look too big compared to those guys and sleds. Anybody feel this way or am I off my rocker?

take em!
