It is sad that it was killed but also it is interesting to have evidence that since wolves have not been known to be in KY since mid 1800s one turned up in Munfordville in 2013.
Gray wolves are on the federal endangered species list and the hunter had mistaken it for a coyote.
Unfortunately it was probably the last one.
probably killed someones pet wolf, ive seen a couple of wolves riding in a pickup truck just like a dog does in Breck county!
ReplyDeleteLooks more like a coy-wolf or coydog hibrid to me. The feet look too small and the snout is too narrow and the tail not bushy enough to be a true full blooded gray wolf. i would like to see the DNA analysis on it.
