Canadian grays can not come back, since they were never native to the area. Hopefully I will be long gone before they can expand into the area and wipe out what is left of the native species of wolf which I have walked to within 15 feet of one in the past.
We have been hunting the area for 4 generations and SOMETHING has changed in this area in the last 10 years,and not for the good.
The DNR has raped much of the cover in too many areas where there WAS escapement cover in the past and now we hear that there is a problem with bull escapement up there. DUH! When I started putting in for the "any bull S/P there were over 40 of them available and last year only 3.
And you bet this summer and early fall I and others will head over there with cameras and video to see if such things are going on. SOMETHING is definatly WRONG up there!

A little more info on Non native wolves









[/align]These are pictures of two different, legally shot wolves that were also killing livestock. These pictures give an even better idea of the size of these animals as both of these men are around six feet tall.

Imagine what a pack of 10 to 15 of these monsters can do to a herd of Elk. Now multiply that by 100+!

That is the issue we face now. Not the Native Timber Wolf (the very largest about the size of a German Shephard dog) that we are used to is it? These big boys have all but eradicated the Timber Wolf. Where are the environmentalists on this issue? Doesn't the Timber Wolf have protection?

The sad part is these animals have evolved in the Far North to hunt Caribu and Moose that are much harder to hunt and catch so their numbers were naturally held in check. But now that we have brought them down here with much easier to catch Elk, Deer and yes, even Bear, they are rapidly eliminating all mountain ungulate meaning it's only a matter of time till they turn on each other in a war of survival.

They didn't ask for this fate, we brought it on them by bringing them down here where they clearly [/align]
