Along the Spokane River in Spokane. Crossed the road in front of us and stopped long enough to get a good look but moved on before we could get a pic. I tried hard to make it look like a coyote but it was a wolf. Very heavy fur, big body and big head. I've seen lots of Coyotes and it wasn't a coyote!

Did it make you feel all warm and fuzzy laying eyes on such a magnificent creature?

Sorry for the smart a$$ comment. They are kinda cool to see when they're not clogging up your coyote sets!

Sorry for the smart a$$ comment. They are kinda cool to see when they're not clogging up your coyote sets! I'm sure they would be a pain.

We saw one a month ago, lone wolf loping through a field It was interesting to me as Im from Nebraska....and this was basically inside city limits. Very unusual to me!
Sorry for the smart a$$ comment. They are kinda cool to see when they're not clogging up your coyote sets! Several years ago I remember talking to the Minnesota state biologist and him telling me about a wolf they collared and tracked from the Fort Rippley pack, and how in the course of it’s travel it headed south down through Iowa and Missouri then through part of Kansas into Nebraska then west to Wyoming north into Montana then back east to its old home range at Fort Rippley all in the course of a little over a year, and how it apparently passes through several large urban areas Unlike a lot of people I don’t mind wolves being around I just wish we could trap or hunt them and take them out when they become a danger to us or our animals without having to fight through piles of red tape or break the law
