What color were they?"We saw a pair of wolves just past the fishing bridge in Yellowstone on the way home from our deer hunt in wyoming…."
I've seen four near there.

I had a conversation with an MTFWP biologist who told me that there "are only 2 wolves on the Beartooth face" and "people don't know what they are looking at."
I guess that means we shoot what we see and call them coyotes.
"Breeding pairs" is a myth, that has been debunked.200 breeding pairs in yellowstone...
Seriously. Just like women the only time you can get near some of them is when they are horny. Think preying mantis. Hit it and git it."Breeding pairs" is a myth, that has been debunked.
Just because a "baby daddy" don't hang around, the bitches in heat still get bred, and raise litters.
There was a "pair"at some point.
It's very disheartening to read about your experience. This seems to be irreversible with the increase of this agenda I'm sorry to say. I live in the people's republic of Washington and reading about the efforts to reintroduce Griz in the northern Cascades looks like they are trying to remove our hunting since they've not achieved taking our guns away….I saw 6 cows on my side of the mountains and not one mature mule deer.They game in my area have the wolf, cat,grizz, and most times deep snow and hard winters.East sides a different ball game, but a lot of hunters are getting concentrated over there.I grew up here and know many guides first hand and here what they have to say
Both were dark gray, one was almost black. Both looked undersized, like 60 to 70 lbs - very skinny. And I ment in my post that there are probably over 100 breeding pairs in the western states and that they are branching out to all of them. And I add, have you seen a moose or elk lately in Yellowstone? Their numbers are Way down. My friend that lives in Cody and drives thru Yellowstone frequently has not seen a moose in years and elk infrequently, so if you don't think the wolves are affecting the herds, well you need a different brand of cool aid.What color were they?

There's over 100 breeding pairs in Idaho alone. Not sure what the other states have.Both were dark gray, one was almost black. Both looked undersized, like 60 to 70 lbs - very skinny.

Maybe it's time to start moving deer from States that give 5 tags a year to States getting pummeled with political ideologies.It's very disheartening to read about your experience.

The moose go first. It's been a minute since I drove through last, but no elk, no deer, no moose, and bison were dramatically down from previous.Seldom see elk and haven't laid eyes on a moose inside the park in a couple of years.
Edward approves of your message.We saw a pair of wolves just past the fishing bridge in Yellowstone on the way home from our deer hunt in wyoming. In fifteen years this was the first sighting I've made. Originally I was told the goal was 30 breeding pairs and then they would re-evaluate the need to keep the packs under control. Well the number of breeding pairs is well over 100 and probably closer to 200 so the excess animals are branching out across the western states. Sighting in California have now been made in the sierras all the way to Fresno and in Nevada within 50 miles of Las Vegas. If the so called biologists had stuck to the original number, we would have been fine, but the feds have overrulled every attempt by the states to control the situation. Now it is so far out of hand that the damage to livestock and game animals will be irreversible.
