I feel so much better knowing that these animals are being reintroduced to the wilderness by insane biologists.
Gun or no gun this 85-second video of a cop in Russia as a wolf pack runs by illustrates how bad the odds are.

I don’t suppose there’s a Cougar problem in North Wisconsin.
One would certainly hope not!
Loitering wolves are enough to deal with.
I am more concerned with wolves in Washington DC.
My grandmother grew up in rural Northern Wisconsin during the early 1920s. When we were kids, she liked to tell us a story about neighbors saving her from wolves which were closing in on her as she walked to school.
At that time a bounty was paid to hunters and trappers who brought in dead wolves in Northern Wisconsin. This was more because the wolves were considered a threat to livestock than children walking to school. Of course, as kids none of us appreciated the seriousness of the situation that our grandmother described to us.
“Common and protected.”
Protected? Not if they challenge me.
“Farley Mowat was a fabulist”
Mowat was a grand storyteller but he was full of shite, and I think there’s enough evidence out there to indicate that Mowat’s life adventures and experiences were fabrications, but his experiences in the Canadian wilderness gave authenticity to the ruse.
There is a reason wolves were wiped out in the US back in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Soon we will have to learn that lesson all over again.
SSS(Shoot, Shovel, Shut up!)
Should have called the wife first thing instead of the brother.
There’s a reason we exterminated wolves in the first place. If some goober wants wolves out there running loose, great. They can pay all of the costs for radio tagging that wolf and all of its offspring and all of the domestic animals at whatever price the owner feels is warranted out of their pocket into perpetuity.
If it kills some little girls pony and she says her pony is worth a bazillion dollars then I hope the wolf’s owner has a fat wallet.
What stupid policies are doing is forcing every day Americans to carry, whether it be illegals, run of the mill never prosecuted thugs, or protected wolves - it’s dangerous out there.
Um.....wolves are least of our problems.
I carry 16+1, 16 and 13 in S.E. WA.

Humans and predators don’t mix. I’m top of the food chain. Stay armed.
Reading the comments on the Ammoland site are a hoot. The best is from a guy explaining what he recommends as every day carry. Some people are just ridiculous.
“My most immediate plan of action involves using what I have on me (in his case a G19). Mind you, most days that includes 4 spare mags, a backup .380 with one 12 round spare mag, and two knives. One, a normal size Buck and a Cold Steel Luzon (pocket machete’). “
