After seeing this wolf and the powerful frame these large Alaskan wolves have I have altered my thoughts a bit regarding the other thread where one would take on a 100 lbs. wolf. I am more doubtful now then before.

Very nice animal and I am sure a rush to harvest one like that.

If that don't put a smile on your face not much will. Nicely done.

223. shooting 55grain Vmax rounds. In one side, vitals=soup, little bits of lead in the fat on the the far side. no exit. shot at 110 approximately. Same round shooting pretty big goats and pigs when I lived in hawaii had the same results inside of 50yards. A great round for fur harvesting.

Thanks 330! Acrylic paint from wallyworld and a sponge. When winter predator hunting I am usually in all snow camo, but this was a random hail Mary type situation.

Hey Thanks! After talking the game biologist for this unit, and the taxidermist there has been a pretty serious problem in the area with lice, mites and mange. So I really lucked out to get a healthy one!
