Mike, you'd better bring something bigger than a 22 and lots of them! Many run well over 100 lbs. One of my Alberta buddies was harrased by a pack of wolves. He wacked in the leg and you'd think it would run. Nope it was howling and and running back and forth until he took a leg off with his 300 Win Mag. Then the others came and were howling. He shot at the others and wounded some more. There were 8 of them! The eventually went away. Another guy saw a pack of wolves a few hundred yards away and thought they wouldn't bother him. He was watching a clear cut for moose. A while later he heard a low growl and turned to see a wolf sneaking through the woods towards him. The wolf was so close that the bullet entered the front of the chest and came out of the lower part of the chest. Now that is close! I saw the pictures of the wolf with the entry/exit holes. I am going to ask my friends to send me the pictures. Its years ago but hopefully he still has it.

Don, you are correct! I have also shot wolves in Canada, but Good Lord, not with .22's. The only one which I decided to keep was the White one and had it mounted. It's Paws are 4.5" wide and it's head is a lot larger than a German Shepherd. Wieght was 127lbs and change.

I don't own but the 22, i have 3 clips and they hold 9 rounds each. If i was up there i would carry a brick of them. I knowed they're fairly big, i have taken some deer bigger with head shots with the pistol. I am sure that i would be hunting with something bigger than the 22. I would take my rifle and tote couple boxes of ammo.
