Oregon’s only confirmed breeding pair of wolves, which had established itself in Wallowa County, may be at risk.

I hope he went back to Idaho. Only kidding, I hope is six feet under with a bad case of lead poisoning.

Wildlife Services (paid hunters) also have an extra weeks to shoot two other wolves that have been killing livestock in the area.

I am not happy that these toothy bastards are back in this state. I at least hope they have a taste for cougar and can dine on our prolific kitty population.

"The 3 S-es" is my favorite wolf management plan...shoot, shovel and shut up.

He might be hiding out in Silky’s mansion.

But honestly, I have no use for the POS except for giving him a thorough tar and feathering.

Maybe he met another alpha male (homo sapiens) who had the good sense to shoot, shovel and shut up.

There was a good reason out ancestors trapped and shot these beasts.

The article is a good read. The ranchers in eastern Oregon are in for the fight for their lives. They were issued rubber bullets by ODFW to protect their livestock with. I think I would prefer some lead if I saw one of these big dawgs eating my lively hood.

Unlucky wolf. Just minding his own business killing off some farmers calf or sheep and looky here, that innocent wolf walked into the path of a stray bullet.
Hate what that happens.
shoot, shovel, shut up, have a scotch and a good cigar.

One down, more to go.

Let's hope that responsible Americans will shoot, shovel, and shut up, with regard to cougar and bear as well.

“Russ Morgan, ODFW wolf coordinator.”

Is that kind of like a prom coordinator?

“Rubber bullets were given to stock growers in March, he said. Other non-lethal methods included radio monitoring, RAG boxes, hazing and burying bone piles.”

Oh the humanity!

“Hazing has had a minimal effect, which Morgan said he can’t explain.”

I am really stumped by this too. /s

I suspect after being exposed to Oregonians that he has simply turned metrosexual and refuses to breed. After all, somebody has to eat those nasty spotted owls.

He might be in the Hawthorne district in Portland sipping a latte and chewing on one of the areas hippies.

If y'all're not aware of the group Save Our Elk, here's the URL to their website. Don't watch the slide show unless your stomach's up to it...it ain't pretty.

http://www.saveelk.com/

What wolf huggers don't like to hear is the truth...Canadian gray wolves are the serial killers of the animal kingdom. On the website they refer to "sport killing" and "surplus killing", but I like to call wolves what they are...thrill killers. Here's a story about a mass killing of sheep by three wolves in Montana:

http://www.backpacker.com/montana_wolves_kill_120_sheep/blogs/daily_dirt/1266

We're not talking about Two Socks from "Dances with Wolves"...Canadian gray wolves are huge, they can weigh over 150 pounds, and they are sadistic in their killing methods. Again, if you have the stomach, watch the slide show and see what they do to pregnant elk and deer. If Defenders of Wildlife are so concerned about the plight of wolves, we oughta give them all they want...in their offices in Washington DC!

How about a little compound 1080!
