The only thing that I am certain of is that it is not a coyote.I have seen two wolves in the wild and in both instances it was in late fall they had winter coats.I got a very good look at one and it was easily 150 pounds.I have seen coyotes that have been 55 to 65 pounds and they were very big for their species,this animal looks considerably larger.
You got that right! I shot a 43lb female this year and she was BIG!
I agree....it's not a coyote, judging by the size comparison provided.
