Timber wolves~

[snow]

North central Mn,area around LongVille near leech lake,few deer around this year but loaded with wolves,state brought in a crew of trappers to live trap and tag the wolves in this area,locals tell us over a span of two months they tagged 80 wolves! Resident hunter shot a doe opening day,said within 20minutes he had a pack of wolves on his deer as he stayed in his stand just 100yds away and they wouldn't leave after touching off a couple rds and they became aggressive,he then called his buddy who drove up to his stand in his pickup so the hunter could jump in the box all while watching the wolves shread his deer.Tough hunt.

That's why you shoot em in the azz, they'll run oft and die somewhere else.

We heard them opening morning, but that was it. No sightings for us this year and the last one I had on cameras was mid October. We have had past years where everybody sees them and they are on most of our cameras. I've seen a couple videos this year of situations similar to yours where the wolves eat up a deer somebody just shot.

I love trees, but am not a big fan of wolves. Their reintroduction is a thinly-veiled attempt to reduce / eliminate the need for hunting. Seems to have already worked for moose in MN.

The irony is that the "PETA" folk want to eliminate hunting because it's "cruel". You ever see how a wolf kills a deer?

Somebody should tape that tracking device to a Canadians' bumper. Or Mexican

Couple years ago I read about a young male wolf collared in northern Mn,said this youngster was kicked outof the pack which happens if they are not submissive to the leader of the pack I guess,well over a few months this wolf was found dead of a gunshot wound in michigan,alot of territory to cover.

Few years back around Jan Feb was working in that area surveying and had to go back to a logging road to the truck for spare supplies.
Fresh 3-4" of snow that morning and while at the truck decided to step off to the side and do some "paperwork" quick, finished up to see a few fresh wolf tracks that weren't there 1hr earlier which was a little unsettling considering all I had was a 3lb hammer and six 10" pole barn spikes for my trip back.

Company policy was no firearms even if you were in Wolf or bear territory. I had a close encounter with a black bear north of Virginia MN then the wolf tracks

Sss is the way to go. However the third s is a sumabitch anymore in the Facebook society we currently reside. I shoot a wolf I feel the need to brag about it ...

It wasn't a wolf, it was a very large square nosed yote.

If your referring to my photo I do not know what it is but this was not taken in nd but my friend has put cameras up many of places including the tundra up north. Db

I'm just glad this thread has absolutely nothing to do with T-wolves basketball.

I was really hoping that's what it was about. All eyes north!

That story sounds very fictitious!
