So who's gonna hunt Wolves this fall?

[Bass Whacker]

I cant wait for this, but I think it should be kept out of deer season for the fact that I want to hunt but I dont deer hunt and I dont want to have to wear orange. I feel this would greatly reduce my chances of getting my dog. I called in the same wolf twice now while coyote hunting a little north west of detroit lakes. It has a very distinct bald strip on the top of his back almost like some one aimed a bit high and grazed him. It came in the first time last year with another really dark colored one, and about a month ago it came in a again on its own to a fawn distress. It was pretty cool to see a the same one twice. About 10 miles away from were I was coyote hunting I saw another pair cross a swamp while I was hiking into a small lake to go ice fishing.

Both me and my old man are going to put in for a wolf tag - this past muzzleloader season we saw an awful lot of wolf tracks and we aim to do something about it.

shooting a collared wolve would be like getting a banded duck!

I'm would like to apply, but it all depends on the dates and restrictions...I would like to see it open during deer season in the B zone at least...in most area's of that zone wolve's are much less concentrated than in the primary A zone...and I really doubt I would take the time to hunt travel to the A zone to hunt or trap for one wolf. Technicly, in the B zone...if you have livestock...or pets, or are out walking your pet and see a wolf...season is open now!! But if you shoot one under these circumstances, you have to give it up....hide and all to the DNR and you wouldn't be able to have even a tasty meal from it...here are some of my tried and true Wolf Recipes...

• Grilled Wolf

Slow cook the wolf meat over a grill, marinate with some fruit based glaze, roll in cabbage leaves when done, and serve with steamed white rice.

• Wolf Fritters

Cut your wolf meat into one inch chunks, then soak in buttermilk overnight. Prepare your deep fryer, then bread the wolf meat in your favorite breading, and deep fry until done. Quick, easy and tasty!

• Timber Wolf Jerky

Simple to prepare and better than beef. Just follow ANY jerky recipe and substitute thin sliced wolf meat for beef, venison or whatever. You'll never know the difference.

• Sun Baked Timber Wolf

Shoot a Timber Wolf. Let it sit in the sun for ten days. Come back, and you'll find nothing but bones and hide as others have gobbled up the meat. Then thank your lucky stars that YOU didn't have to eat it!

I do pity the first person to take a wolf though. After reading what the guy in Idaho went through

Good lord are you right! I just googled that and couldn't believe some of the hatemail and comments. These people are unreal crazies and some are dangerous. I wouldn't want to be the first that's for sure.

At $50 for a hunting license, and $100 for a trapping license, not me..

Don't have a good recipe.

Maybe after the initial rush is over and if the population is still high in our neck of the woods.

It will be more of a challenge after they have been hunted a few years.

I definitely plan on getting out. My cousin's been doing very well up in Ontario. Here's the pics of the 2 he's snared this year.

Got this one this weekend. Beautiful animals!

This one was taken about a month ago, nice black one. I've shared it before on this site but it's such a pretty animal I have to share it again! And in case you're wondering, he's already gotten plenty of cr@p for the sweater he's wearing. They're mandatory wear if you live in Canada!

is wolf fur worth anything?

[Random guy]

It is very seasonal and condition driven. Wolves are hard on themselves, freezing into the snow, fighting with each other and of course in the non prime months they look like somebody was practicing haircuts on them.

Prices for wolves ranged anywhere from $15-$300 depending on any number of circumstances. From what I seen on the auction reports it’s a poor market for the southern ends of the wolf range.

The wolf season is not about the fur market but the preservation, management, and care of natural and cultural resources.

Seeing so many coyotes over the years, I forgot how big they are or how tall they can stand etc. how big their head can be etc.

I think calling wolves in and shooting them may be successful in the beginning, but wolves are pretty smart - smarter than coyotes. They'll get wise to it. I think the bulk of the wolves will be taken via trapping.
