[QUOTE="deleted user, post: 392972, member: 1778"] I do recall it happening twice a few years back. “A large canine taken by a coyote hunter early in January east of Hillsboro, N.D., in Traill County has been confirmed as a gray wolf. The hunter apparently shot the gray wolf, a protected species rarely seen in North Dakota, thinking it was a coyote.
