They are huge!! Think about this: My buddy in the picture weighed about eighty pounds at this time. He easily burns through a 35 lb bag of dry food every month. All he does is lay around and guard the house.



Those mature wolves probably weigh 100+ lbs. Think about how much fresh meat it takes to support just one of them for a month and then multiply by six or eight. How's that gonna look for your local deer and elk population.

I'm thinking that we had better get skilled in hunting them, or they will soon be the only wildlife left in some areas. jd

What kind of camera

 

[Brians356]

What kind of camera

It's one of those popular tiny "action cameras" like GoPro. I suppose it was clipped on his hat or headgear, and he had to drop the hat on the ground to use his scoped rifle. Too bad, because I'd loved to have seen the real action, but that requires either a second person (cameraman) or expensive through-the-scope video.

Plus just think how many animals wolves kill and don't eat...multiply that by 6-8 !!!
