March 7 1888 I almost put 1988:)

What year?

Interesting! Times were tough and times have changed through the years.

Gotta remember, the gubment says there has been no human death by wolves in the US ever.

Well, that was graphic!

Terrible way to go

I do wonder about the possibility of packs of Indian dogs.

The winter of 1887–88 was brutal in the Dakotas, and just a few weeks earlier (January 12, 1888) the infamous Children’s Blizzard killed hundreds of people.

I read that "quote" quite often. Living in Colorado wolves are a really big topic of conversation. When game is scarce and wolves are plentiful, seems to be the trigger for attacks around the northern hemisphere, Russia, Europe, North America. This could possibly begin again in North America, (with enough wolves).

I guess I don't think the wolves ate every thing every where. They still give out doe tags and cow tags in most states. ND used to give out 140,000 deer tags a few year ago and give out 40,000 now, and we have very few wolves. I think the wolves are blamed for a lot that they don't do. But, I don't talk to the guberment as often as most of you do.

There was a reason they were killed off. We've forgotten that reason but will be remembering soon!

Old timey news papers were known for their blatant lies. Like today's media.



I trust the media even less than the govt.

And I trust ai even less than the media.

That adds a perspective for sure!

That’s the same time Old Three Toes from Harding County SD was on his rampage

Nope sorry three toes was caught in 1925, after a 13 year rampage.

The wolves were feeding on the dead solders in WWl, they even called a temporary truce so they could kill off the wolves before they started shooting each other again.

Talk to Canada,see what they say

Ten rods is only 55 yards

I thought they were killing live soldiers at night too

Pampered house dogs live to 13 plus or minus.



What's the average lifespan of a wolf subjected to the vicissitudes of northern plains winters? I bet it wears them out sooner.
