Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Canada Huge Wolf Shot

I think the exaggerated size of this wolf is due to camera angle.
Obviously taken from ground looking up.


A friend of mine has trapped hundreds of Alaskan wolves.
He also communicates with several Canadian fur trappers.
He swears that his wolves are bigger as per Bergman's law that states that the further north you go, the larger the body size.



I think they about top out at 150lbs.
A wolf can reportedly hold 40 lbs of meat in it's stomach.
Maybe closer to 20 IMHO.
But anyhow I do know that if you shoot one with a full belly you will be much closer to those weights mentioned above.
