COUNTY
Pennsylvania Game Commission officials today announced that they are seeking
information about the person or persons who may have illegally released a pair
of gray or timber wolves or wolf-hybrids that have appeared in Straban Township,
Adams County, in recent days. Game Commission Wildlife Conservation Officer
(WCO) Darren David is investigating, and any information should be provided to
the Southcentral Region Office at 814-643-1831.
According to WCO David's investigation, on Feb. 19, an individual shot one of
the wolves. After killing the animal, the individual contacted the Game
Commission Southcentral Region Office and turned over the carcass to officers.
"The animal is a male and appears to be around 120 pounds, and was not neutered
or collared," David said. "We are going to have it examined and tested to
verify whether this is a pure-bred animal and to see if there are any
indications about where the animal originated."
WCO David also received reports that a pet collie in the area was attacked on
Feb. 16, and injured by repeated bites, which is indicative of an attack by
another canine, and possibly one of these wolves. The dog later died at a
veterinarian's office from its injuries.
"Anyone who sees the remaining wolf should keep his or her distance from it and
contact the Southcentral Region Office at 814-643-1831," WCO David said.
"Specific details will be very helpful in determining its possible location."

RE: wolfs in pa
Here is a link to the second article.

If you read the entire article, you will find that the wolves were privately owned and got loose "somehow." One was killed by a hunter. The other is now back in its pen. No ear tags with an insurance company's name. No other conspiracies uncovered. Just a stupid guy who didn't make sure his pet wolves were safely contained.
