Free Ranging Wolf Shot in Ohio

[Zbone]

I know how we all luv to talk wolves…8^)

Received this via e-mail today along with three pictures of the dead wolf, although I don't know how to post pix here.

Am guessing captive released, but will be interesting to learn where they came from:

Thought these pics might interest some of you. It's something different anyway, and unlike so many email pictures and accompanying stories, this one's true. Brian Bury, quoted below, is the Sandusky County Wildlife Officer.
 
 
 
 
Well, after at least a dozen calls about "a pack of wolves", here's what was shot today.  Two more got away.   This was a large male, at least 100 lbs.  They have been covering about a 10 mile area the last few days.  The guy is going to have it mounted.  So for those of you that get the cougar, lion, tiger, panther calls, I guess anything is possible.

Looks pretty healthy.  When wolves were first introduced in WI our DNR said they would need to close all forest service roads because the wolves wouldn't tolerate any human presence in their core area.  What a bunch of crap!  Now we've got them being reported in almost every county in the State, walking up on people's porches, following their kids, attacking pets while the owners in their yards with them.  This is getting out of control, and is one more reason why the liberals have to ALL be booted from positions where they can affect decision making and public policy.

Unless this wolf was killed with trad equipment, it has not place here on TG.
