Timber wolf

[Hunter]

I see a lot of wild wolves. This pictures is easily my favorite though. Please critique and edit as you feel fit. Is one shot in a million.

Wow, what do you do each day that gets you so close to these predators so often?

Cool shot. A bit sharper on the eyes and maybe not having the chin cut off and I'd rate it highly.

I guide fisherman and hunters. And am a trapper. It sounds contradictory but I adore these animals. At my camp we take 40 bear a year. And the camp has existed for 99 years this year. So it is certainly sustainable. Thank you for your encouraging words! I do trap wolf as well for the fur trade. I take maybe 20 a year. More or less.

Well I was hoping for wildlife guide or park ranger but I do understand that there's reasons why, as humans, we try to control populations of animals.

Yes definitely a one in a million shot for sure.
Is this cropped at all Hunter? If so, would love to see the full pic.

Wonderful close up of this fellow. I can't wait to see what else you have in your collection.

Sadly this is the full pic. I have a ton more of this girl though I will post them later on for sure.

I appreciate all comments. I am glad to have found this forum. Kinda exciting to let ppl see some things I don't share with anyone.
