OK i normally do not do this because it is one of those my wife's brothers girlfriend, blah blah.
but my secretary sent me this picture it is supposed to be her father-in-laws, girlfriends cousin? anyway the wolf was shot last week in Idaho according to the story. it was sent to her and said it was 217 pounds. now i am not an expert but i did not think wolves got that big and while this one looks huge i really question the weight. i thought i would at least share the picture. http://i944.photobucket.com/albums/ad284/2...ypical/wolf.jpg -------------------- life is short hunt hard.
there is peace to be had in those mountains go find it. |

Somebody has to call BS on the size of the wolf. A 200 plus pound wolf would be like a 450 pound blacktail. A monster wolf (on certified scales) would hit at about 115-120. I just had a wolf discussion with a fellow biologist in Idaho and he mentioned that the wolves removed and weighted average well under 100 pounds. These were during the past five years (non-sport hunted wolves).
Just trying to keep things half way honest and people with the best data. -------------------- Jack Spencer Jr.
