A fine tuned killing machine.. In the picture above is a large male on the left, and a young female on the right. These wolves were taken in Ontario, Canada with small caliber centerfires and were called in with distress calls. They can be called just like coyotes and I think it wasn't more than ten minutes from the time the calling began to when the first wolf appeared out of the woods and into gun range. After the first one(female) was shot, canine distress cries were made and the second wolf(male) charged out of the bush and stood over the female. When the male was shot, another wolf immediately ran the other way with us only catching glimpses of it fleeing through the timber. It was one of those experiences that stick with a hunter a lifetime. There is one thing you should keep in mind if ever deciding to pursue a wolf. Wolf hunting is very time consuming and hard work since the wolf travels quite a bit and does like the thick brush lands which make it very hard for calling. The only other thing I found difficult is the skinning of them. You think a coyote has a glued on hide,..... well try a wolf. If you don't have a tail puller than you better get one. It's hard enough to get one out with a puller and I would say impossible with just your fingers. The Timber Wolf or Gray Wolf is a large predator that when compared side by side with its smaller cousin the coyote is uncompareable. Both in size and strength, the Wolf is far beyond the largest coyote I've ever seen. They have simular markings but seeing a Wolf in the wild, that is if one ever has the opportunity, there is no mistaking it for a coyote. At first glance at a distance the unexperienced might look at a smaller female and the first thought is that you are looking at a very large coyote. The more you look, the more you'll know it's no large coyote standing in view. The Timber Wolf is much larger in every way than the coyote. It's ears are bigger but on that large head they carry doesn't seem to be noticeable. The thing most noticeable at a distance is the broad nose and large head. The feet are much larger than a coyote and are more compareable to a large domestic dog. The legs are thicker, the tails are much larger and bushier, the nose pad is alot bigger, and even the teeth in the wolf's mouth in comparison with the coyote is like comparing human teeth with that of a cow. They definately have to tools to prey on moose and deer.   Copyright 1998-2007 Wolfz Video Productions all right reserved
