RE: COUGARS ARE HERE
ORIGINAL: butch910 Near our camp,located in Hamilton County a dead deer was found 40 feet up a tree. All of a sudden the deer were hanging out in town. What else could cause that ???? Last year we had a wolf run across road in front of us. This year we counted 7 moose on our land. There are no fences around state borders. There are lots of reasons the deer could bearound town. |

Pics of the moose yes as soon as i get them will post. Wolf no was at night. Deer in tree was told by trooper didnt see it. Was also in local newspaper.

Moose have wandered thru - there is a small pop in the Adirondacks.
More the a little hard to identify a wolf from a coyote, dog etc running by at night. Deer in tree the same 2nd(3rd, 4th 5th .....)hand story all NY reports are. Steve |

I realize the thread was started concerning mountain lions, but talk of wolves caught my eye.
I took part in a deer drive just outside of Attica, ny, in 1977. Anyone familiar with that area & that year knows it was one of the harshest, coldest, falls/winters on record. One hunter fired a shot, claiming to miss a deer. Only several weeks later did I find out that the hunter took a beautiful timber wolf, thinking it was a large coyote. It is believed that it crossed down from Canada over frozen Great lakes. That same winter, one was darted in Grand Island and released. I saw the wolf pelt mentioned above. It was tanned by the hunter, who also was a trapper. Checked around at first to get a full body mount, until he was told about the 10,000$ fine that would come with it. To this day, the pelt hangs on his basement wall. It's huge, beautiful. |

On a bear hunt in Alberta a number of years ago, one of the hunters in camp shot a wolf. It was estimated at about 130 lbs., if I remember correctly. Long way from the 80 lbs. Sproul reports. Must have been a long, hard journey down here....

Sproul reports. Must have been a long, hard journey down here.... so, it may have weighted more than 80 pds but i was taking that 47 pd coyote and doubling it. my dog is 81 pds and that wolf was a lot longer.so yes, it could have been way over 80 pds,i dont know.. i know this, it was rusty red color.it was real LONG....... a little off topic, my friends are grouping together and will come to your area and hunt down the coyotes for you. if anyone is interested, PM me and i will give you phone number to call. |
