The wolfs they have introduced into New Mexico/Arizona is the Mexican Grey wolf, it is having a hard time establishing the packs, it will be a number of years before they make there way out of the plant area.

If you can pattern a mule deer, you have it made. I have scouted 2 big bucks in Wyoming though out the spring and summer, no pressure at all, come fall, one antelope hunter got lost and walked into the area (private land) I did not see those 2 bucks until early November, but the others that where th...

How will Colorado treat these animals of they are wolfs. They will be a species introduced without permission. Just like putting Muskie’s into the Colorado River? I know animals don’t know state borders, Wyoming is having a hard time with the US Fish and Game on de-listing the animals.

If mechanically inclined, you can do it your self. See a lot of people put new stocks on them, lots of thumbhole stocks (per...
