WOW

growing some antlers,4 pix of the same deer,looking forward to fall.

A decent one...










Bet she hates deer flies!!

Hopefully this hasn't been asked/answered already, but how often do y'all check your cams? I seem to have a difficult time waiting more than a week. Lack of patience, apparently.

Finally got around to checking the camreass again. here are the highlights

 

I need to get my cameras back out.

Bryan...I usually check mine once a week, occasionally I let them go 2 weeks.  If I wait 2 weeks the memory cards are usually filled and have been sitting idle for 4 - 5 days.

If it's on a trail or anywhere besides a lick or feeding station you can wait much longer, say 3-4 weeks.

Nice capture on the wolf Jim!

I was thinking that was a coyote?

I was thinking wolf too. Pretty tall and dark for a coyote. But maybe I'm wrong, wouldn't be the first time    

LOTS of bucks at this lick last week, here's just a handful I got pics of....



Blind in his right eye?

Any thoughts about this one? Coyote or ????



Here is a picture to reference size to the one above.


And here's one I'd like a little better look in a few months.  Hoping he has a ways to grow yet.

I'm in no way an expert, but I would say wolf. That's a big head and long body for a coyote, at least in KS.

id say maybe a wolf judging on the size of his paws. either way pretty cool

Whip, if you measure the distance between the legs of that at least 2 year old buck and the same distance of the predatory criter, the size is near the same.  Nose to tail is simular as well - body girth  same deal.  I guess it is one heck of a huge coyote ... ya right.

Bob.

That's what I'm thinking.  Wolves have moved in to what is known as the central forest region of WI, and are pretty well established there.  My property is more farmland country, and further west than the established wolf ranges.  Wolves hadn't been seen commonly there in the past, and I had never seen any evidence of them previously.  

But just two days after that picture was taken a man on a motorcycle hit one on the road within two miles of my property.  Both the wolf and the rider were killed.

Oh man, that is bad movie, hitting any large animal on a bike.  We are seeing more and more numbers of large predators here in the southwest corner.  There are bear evey year, a few scattered wolf sightings ( nothing to get alarmed about) but we ahve ever increasing mouintain lIOn sightings, tracks, and deer found dead ... in trees.

Anyway, I am starting to steal this tread so I will stop.  I guess my original point was cool picture Whip!! It does look like a wolf.  I would rather they stay up north personally.

Bob.

That one looks like a wolf.Summer hair but deep,heavy muzzle of a wolf.

Glad to see those twins still around on the 14th after lobo passed thru on the 11th.

Looks like a coyote to me.  I HATE COYOTES! They eat turkeys!

Looks like a wolf to me Joe. Long face and long legs. If its a coyote that is a monster.
