I screwed the pooch on a white wolf this year while packing out a moose. Absolute rookie mistake. Took my pack off and walked 20 or so yards to sit down, rest and glass a basin. Left my rifle strapped to the pack. Out of nowhere, 75 yards away there he is.....just standing there. Oh well. By the shape and bulk of the snout I suspect it was a mature male. I've killed a few wolves but never a white one.

On another note one wolf I trapped had been absolutely ripped apart by his packmates. I had nothing but a paw and leg bone left. Brotherly love and all that...

These thoughts have nothing to do with the OP, but neither does well over half of the rest of these posts. Whatever the outcome, I wish Colorado hunters the best concerning this.
