Big Bad Wolf messing with my deer.

I forgot I left a trail camera behind my cabin. I checked it and there was 3 wolf pictures.After the wolves left the deer didn't come back for 3 days. Nice to know if I'm hunting and I don't see anything.

Last weekend when I was here I found 2 dead deer in 400 yards of each other.

 

Dano, What kind of shape were the dead deer in? Whole? Partially eaten? Just a patch of hair and a couple bones?

 

cool pic Dan, sucks for scaring the deer in the area though if they are coming around on a regular basis.

 

That wolf looks exactly like a German Shepard. According to the WDNR web site, Canid Identification, wolves have straight tails.

X 2 It does look more like a German Shepard

 

I never really looked that close at the picture the first time. Looking closer, I would say that is definitely not a wolf. Like Greg said, the tail is a dead giveaway.

Here's a couple wolf pics I have from Ontario for reference.





Also, check out Mike's thread.....lots of wolf pics in here.

I never thought about it being a german shepard. There is nobody with one around me. Here is the 3rd picture the tail looks different inthis one.

 

One was fresh partial eaten the other was bones with some hair .
