A yet to be named wolf pack, which formed last winter, has been successfully hunting elk on the National Elk Refugee for the last month. Yesterday morning, the pack crossed the Gros Ventre River north into Grand Teton National Park. Over just a few hours, the wolves attempted five...

They’ve decimated elk, deer, & moose, herds in Montana, Wyoming, & Idaho. Calving season is a smorgasbord for Wolves. Kill countless livestock, dogs, sheep, horses, anything that moves. It’s out of control & they must be unprotected & controlled through managed hunting.

These wolves are like the gangs, that are ravaging through America. They kill for a fun many time leaving most of the animal will be behind. They do have to be stopped.

What a boss!! Elk are so badass. This is your proof! I love wolves equally as much but this just goes to show you how powerful a full grown mule can be. Impressive survival.

While cool, if that’s in Wy. I doubt that pack lasts long. They don’t get the same protection as they do in Co, and Wy folks are not the same as Co folks.

Wolves are the best protectors of the eco system. Leading to population growth, in some cases, even bring back endangered animals...!

Why wolf hunting is important.

A rare glimpse at the territorial nature of wolf packs. Instances like this probably happen regularly as wolves aim to maintain/expand their territory and eliminate neighboring wolves (i.e., competitors for resources). These snippets show the breeding pair of the Windsong Pack venturing out of their territory to chase the breeding male of the neighboring pack (the Blood Moon Pack). If the Windsong Pack had caught up to this wolf, they would have undoubtedly killed him. But they didn’t. The chase did not last very long—a handful of minutes with a straight-line distance of just under a mile. The first clips of the chase were from a camera on the edge of a beaver dam. The breeding male of the neighboring pack (Wolf Y1T) crossed the dam and clearly knew he was being followed. A minute later, the Windsong Pack passed by in pursuit. The next clips were captured about 4 minutes later on a second camera just under a mile to the north of the first one. On this second camera, Wolf Y1T was running full speed. However, the Windsong Pack while in pursuit, appeared to be slowing down. A minute later, the Windsong pair walks back past this camera…the chase had ended. About an hour after that, the Windsong Pack crossed the beaver dam that the first camera was on in their return trip to their territory. Interestingly, about 2 months after this video was captured, Wolf Y1T’s mate was killed by the neighboring pack to the south (Biondich Pack). Since the pack was only two wolves (Y1T and his mate), this event left Y1T by himself and the status of the Blood Moon Pack up in the air. However, within a few weeks, Y1T found another mate and through some series of events, Y1T and his new mate booted the Windsong pair (i.e., the wolves in this video pursuing Y1T) from their territory this past summer, and took it over. As such, Y1T and his mate (the Blood Moon Pack) currently occupy the Windsong Pack territory.

Some beautiful footage from the dam of a remote beaver pond in early spring this year. You can hear the sounds of spring all around this pond, which we call “Capsaicin Pond” (story behind that below). But this is more than just pretty footage...the footage highlights an interesting dynamic in the wolf packs in this area...because all the wolves in the video belong to different packs but they all have a history with one another. Notably, this pond is in an area of overlap between the Half-Moon and Lightfoot Pack territories. The first wolf in the video is the new breeding male of the Half-Moon Pack (now dubbed Wolf Y15C after we collared him this spring). He and his mate kicked out Wolf V094, the longstanding breeding male of the Half-Moon Pack, in Fall 2024. And Wolf V094 just so happens to be the 2nd wolf in this video, and Wolf Y15C’s mate happens to be V094’s daughter. Small world! Wolf V094 was a lone wolf at the time this video was taken but he joined the Peatlands Pack later this past summer. But you can tell he is getting to be an old fellow. And then the last wolf on camera is the breeding female of the Lightfoot Pack (Wolf B3S). She recently became the breeding female of the Lightfoot Pack after kicking out her mother in Fall 2024. And as it turns out, her mate is the son of Wolf V094. For a few months last winter, V094 actually traveled around with this female and his son in the Lightfoot territory but then for whatever reason, moved on. Now, as for the name, let’s just say someone on our crew was out doing fieldwork near this pond a few years ago and had a little issue with their bear spray...it was a long walk out for them with some blurry eyes that were feeling the burn...

Two reasons this video from last winter is pretty neat. The first is that the video illustrates how much larger male wolves can be than female wolves. The two wolves in the latter part of the video are the breeding pair of the Pelican River Pack. The breeding male of that pack is a big boy whereas his mate is considerably smaller (would guess ~20-25 lbs). She is not only smaller but also considerably shorter than her mate. The average female wolf in our area is about 55 lbs/25 kg and average male is about 70 lbs/32 kg. However, mature adult males can be between 80-90 lbs. For instance, the first wolf in the video was the breeding male of the Wandering Pines Pack. We collared him this summer and he weighed 76 lbs/34.6 kg in late summer—when wolves are the leanest—meaning he was likely 80+ lbs in this video. And the breeding male of the Pelican River Pack appeared larger than him from our perspective. Regardless, there was a considerable difference in size between the Pelican River breeding pair. The second reason this video is neat is that the camera was right on the edge of the Wandering Pines and Pelican River Pack territories. The first sequence in this video was the breeding male of Wandering Pines scent-rolling at 12:51. And then, just 13 minutes later, the breeding pair of the Pelican River Pack comes running in, clearly fixated on the scent from the dominant male of the neighboring pack. Although things like this probably happen all the time, we rarely get to see this kind of territorial behavior in this detail given how difficult it is to see wolves in our area.
