Unfortunately I don't think there is a whole lot you can do. Mother nature will run her course... we just get to react.

We've got wolves too, but we seem to see lots of deer anyway. They aren't like dogs.Running deeris not recreational to them. If it takes them more energy to try to run a deer down than they'll get from eating it, they'd rather eat mice and rabbits, (which there are a lot of this year). Don't worry about them. If anything, they'll catch and kill any feral dogs running deer in the neighborhood.

Your not kidding!!! The teeth and paws were huge. If it were legal I would carry my pistol with me while I bowhunt just incase. The yellowish eyes were kinda freaky.

The head on that thing was enormous. You're right, the teeth were nuts. We have Wolves here in the Northern Lower but nothing like that beast. The worst thing I have to worry about is black bear and an occasional Rattle tail.

Not much you can do other then take a pic if you are able to see one. I know when we have them in our hunting area we don't see any deer
