We should have a predator sticky thread. I miss PredatorHuntCanada. That was an awesome forum. Maybe there can be a contest for the most verified kills too. That would be even better. I guess one problem will be is that it was the boys and girls in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba that kept that thing interesting. Might die with just us BC'ers.

while camping in region 3 . Last week of august. I awoke to the sun beaming into the trailer. Time to get up and make coffee. Sat back down on the bed to wait for it to start purcolating, noticed movement in the camp across the road. A large male wolf pissing on the picnic table in the emtpy camp. I woke the kids and they got to watch a wolf . Close . Less than 50 yrds. Unafraid of people.... He stood there for about a minute then walked down the rd howling. I slipped out to get a pic bit he slipped out of range . Go figure a wolf in camp and unafraid of people. Just glad the kids got to see one . Wish it was open. So 1 week later we go camping west of 100 mile and we return from fishing the lake . Near dark and we hear a wolf howling along ways away. So i start mimicking its howls and he gets closer . And closer and this goes on for about and hr . Now its dark and been quiet , no calls being returned? Well bedtime. Wake up in the early morning to a wolf howling i slip out of the trailer and see it across the lk. The sun was just cresting and shinning right on it. I grab my binos from the trailer and notice movement in the field behind us . 2 more wolves sitting and looking at the wolf across the lk . My heart accelerates and my mind jumps to precise steps and location of all ammo rifle and tripod . Within a few quick quiet steps for the first time in my life i have cross hairs on a wolf . Had to calm my breathing then squeezed and smack. Heard the impact and watched it buckle. Wolf Down. Woohoo. My son comes bolting out . Dad whatcha shooting . A wolf . Cool . We make our way over . Small female. But heh one less mouth out there. 240 yrds.

I just got back from region 4 didn't get a elk but shot a wolf. Was walking along a motorized closed logging road, about 7km from the truck and came up to a clear cut with 4 or 5 wolves scrambling to the tree line. I swung my 7mm off my back and shot one just as it was about to enter the trees. In region 4 wolves need to be inspected so I took it to Cranbrook, was surprised to find out I was only the third wolf to be inspected this year.

Good work! I had a similar experience on Tuesday, but didn't get a shot before it reached the tree line.
