    There used to be a black wolf in our area, but we haven't gotten any pics or had any sightings for at least 4 or 5 years. Well, my wife was running a week or two back and saw 3 wolves, one of which was black. Finally got around to checking some cards and moving cams today and lo and behold...

    I don't think she's very old, but I know it's not the same one as before. Happy to see that she seems to be hanging around. Can't wait to get more pics :tu:

    Yes, there's a lottery. I've put in the last two years and have not been drawn.

    Awesome animals, I don't know if I could pull the trigger. Maybe on one to make something out of the hide.

    That would make for a sweet bow kill and mount. Good luck in the raffle

    Nice catch on the camera. Not sure if I would be excited to have that many wolves lurking around though. They're big and they have to eat....something!! LOL!

    I would love have a full body wolf mount. My buddy has two he shot up in CN just north of MN. They are awesome mounts...and huge wolves.

    I didn't know that. Do you also have to purchase a tag?

    $5 to enter the draw, and I think $35 if you are drawn. I can't remember what a tag costs for non residents runs off hand.
