RE: Wolves in Illinois?
About 6 years ago I was bird hunting a brushy creek, my dad was on one side and I was on the other. The dog kicked up what we thought was a yote but they never saw luckily b/c he would have chased it. Anyways. It came out of the creek about 20 yds in front of my dad, stopped for a few seconds and looked at him and then trotted off. But this couldn't have been a yote b/c it was a little reddish and was the size of a German Shepard!! A few weeks later we heard a rumor that 2 pairs of red wolves were released in that general area so we think it might have been one of these "so-called" wolves. Who knows though?
