I Alaska, there's this thing called SLED DOGS, most people keep 50-60 of them; somewhat difficult to keep them inside of cabin or spend 50 X $500 = $25000 for 15 foot square kennels only to have wolves clear the 6 foot fence and kill the dogs anyway from time to time.

Last winter, wife rode the bus to school when it was minus 60 and saw wolf tracks at bottom of our 1000 foot lane on main dirt road. I called my neighbor who had 3 dogs that lived inside his house and mentioned he better watch when he let his dogs outside to do their business. Later that evening he called and told me me he killed my wolf. Wolf was on road, ran up his lane, attacked his dogs. Had one by neck on ground when neighbor ran out with shotgun. Wolf wouldn't even let go of dog, neighbor sprayed blood all over driveway; dead wolf and his dog did recover over the nx month.

Actually quite common, happens all the time in Alaska. Never use to until the stupid wolf luvers started sending money to our politicals. Only one that never took their money was Palin too. She funded extensive helo wolf control, a good thing.

Lower 48ers should become aware of reality before judgment.

Wow... I have seen those dog kennels and I think they are worthless. We talked many times about how something could climb a tree and jump in or just clear the fence as you said. Why aren’t those kennels available with HEAVY DUTY TOPS ON THEM? No sense in putting your animal in a cage with an open top. To me that makes them sitting ducks. I was a little confused when you mentioned Dead Wolf...I lost somethign in the story yet read it a couple times. Thanks for the info though. Appreciate it.
