Re: Canadian Wildlife
I wonder if they would like our heat here, and would survive well.
I don't want them, but it would be interesting knowing if they would.

Re: Canadian Wildlife
All people need now is a fire like that as filthy as the air is this time of year.
I hope Gary is not near that mess.
Let me guess, no controlled burning there

This year’s forest fires haven’t been too bad and I’m not too close to any fires at the moment.

Re: Canadian Wildlife
It has been a quiet year really for fires there, here also so maybe it's all burned out for a few years.
They will still not clear areas though, and have fire lines so they will be back.

I don’t know for sure that this wolf is Canadian but….. he’s the odds are…. Well this is a beautiful black wolf. I saw one in Saskatchewan just like this one once.

Re: Canadian Wildlife
It is thick, I wonder if it has dog mixed in it, I think it has to have something other than wolf.

Re: Canadian Wildlife
Perhaps there’s some dire wolf in its DNA.

Draft horse
More likely just a dog, they get quite big sometimes breading them like that.
One thing is it is a beautiful creature.

Re: Canadian Wildlife
Wolves are pretty cool. While they're elusive creatures, after I first moved here I heard a pack howling from the back mountain late one night. First time I've heard that in 'real life'. Recorded media cannot accurately represent the feeling of hearing the real thing...
Re: Canadian Wildlife
My crew and I heard a pack one day. I was neat to hear them.

Re: Canadian Wildlife
no wolves here, just me, and some coyotes running around.
I'm sure there used to be some, but all killed off a long time ago.
We had no elk, or bears in the east, but they have returned so maybe wolves will some day.
The Elk was re introduced by the way, the bigger animals followed, and since hunting is way down other things can recover.
Mountain lions are likely back, people seem to think they have seen them in eastern Kentucky.

Re: Canadian Wildlife
The mountain lions may have been there all along in secret.

Re: Canadian Wildlife
Nah, my uncles would have known how much they hunted all those years.
One of my uncles could read the land like an old scout Indian could.
Now bobcats where a plenty, and wild pigs.
