Any gray wolves seen in Utah this year?

I know you’ll be abused if you calm you have seen one, without a picture, so feel free to PM me if you would rather not share a sighting with the public.

I’ve been told, second hand, about one sighting, just curious if anyone else saw it or others in different locations.

I Haven't Seen A Live One Yet!

No wolves in Utah. Just a few big coyotes, but no wolves.

Like I’ve said before, there is no way a Wolf could make it into Utah without hitting a bait pile or a trail cam within the first two hundred and with everyone wearing thermal binoculars I would say you guys are safe for now. But here’s one killed in Idaho

I have to laugh at this. People think that cameras cover the entire state. In reality, they likely cover significantly less than 1/1,000th of 1% of the land.

There was a wolf a while back, 2013 I believe, that went from Wyoming to Arizona. Pretty safe to assume if there was one that came through Utah over a decade ago, there has been one or two since then.

That is one big pooch.

That's my favorite kind of wolf, a dead one!
