I absolutely detest humans who treat wolves like they are some kind of deity. Those humans are some kind of moron. Wolves are ruthless predators and will often kill just for fun. There are pictures to prove that.
I’ve never been one to hunt grazers but I love to hunt predators of the 4 legged variety. Tried to kill one of the god-like wild canines last winter down near Avery, ID with friends. Saw lots of wolf tracks but never saw a live animal. Didn’t see any elk or deer tracks either.
Live along the upper Yukon, we got too many wolves too; decreasing moose numbers. I got a few on my game cam last fall before the snow. I’ve had the buggers in my garbage cans at 3 am in November. Had them trying to eat my sled dogs, ran out on the porch with my AR blasting away. I don’t have any luck with my fox pro. My one buddy got a 140 lber this winter up haul road. They drive, when see caribou tracks, glass. Saw 9 wolves single filing it towards road. They got out sat down in snow, wolves crossed 50 yards from them, got three. I once again forget how to post picts? My kids call them in with rabbit squealers at school bus stop in September, wolves stand in woods across the road, look kids over, never cross.
