A lone gray wolf padded quietly into Los Angeles County before dawn on Saturday — and made history.
State biologists say the female wolf may be the first documented in Southern California in 100 years, after the apex predators were wiped out across the state by eradication campaigns aimed at protecting livestock.
The last known wild wolf in California was shot on June 12, 1924, by federal trapper Frank W. Koehler in Lassen County.
The three-year-old female, known as BEY03F, was spotted on a trail camera in the mountains north of Santa Clarita.

I was hoping it might scare the bejeesus out of the ,malcontent miscreants of actual L.A.

I’m thinking a mountain lion would take a gray wolf one-on-one nine times out of ten or better.
And they’d probably avoid each other.

The Wolf: “Move out of the sticks, gentlemen. Say goodbye, Raquel.”
Raquel: “Goodbye, Raquel.”
The Wolf: “Walk out, get in the car. Go home. Jerk off, and that’s all you’re gonna do”.

One on one the Cat will most likely be having Doggie Burger for dinner. But Wolves are more likely to be in a pack so they avoid each other.

Had a wolf bull encounter near Quincy Cali recently. Rancher saw it on a field cam and saved the young bull. Neck and leg wounds. Probably not the same wolf though. 🤔😊👍
