Eighty pound, game bred, Pitbull in his prime vs a 120 pound wild wolf in his prime, my money's on the Pitbull. Not a moment's hesitation. Wolf would be screaming for momma in less than one minute. I'll take that bet! Me too. And I'll be buying beer with TRH's cash all night. Quite comical that he just can't see past his nose on this.

An animal like this don't need no 'pack' to get the drop on a friggen boxer.
Yeah, well, he'd better bring his "A game" and a few buddies if he wants to take on a pit bull. Right Hawk?

The Pitbull being the premier fighting canine, wild or domesticated, you betcha, assuming he's not caught napping like the Boxer appears to have been. PS And, likewise, a wolf would be equally unwise to challenge a Greyhound to a race or a Bloodhound to a trailing match. Nor, however, should any of those dogs challenge a wolf to a survival in the wild contest.

An assumption here is that a wild wolf will unfailingly rip a dog to shreds at every opportunity. Sorta odd, dogs are their close cousins and between their ears they can be as different as night and day, anyone who has owned multiple dogs will aver that all had their own personality. Close studies of wolf packs show the same thing. Granted, the number one cause of death of healthy adult wolves is probably other wolves, pack members usually attacking intruders on sight. This including close relatives such as dogs and coyotes. Key word here is "usually". Lone wolves leave their home pack and some may join other packs, a thing impossible is pack killed ALL intruders all the time. Likewise, in Yellowstone, I recall reading of a remarkable 8 year-old alpha female that was kicked out of her home pack by a coalition of subordinates, who then went on to found another pack, a thing inmpossible if wolves killed strangers ALL the time. Anyhoo... here's a piece on wolf dispersal... http://biology.kenyon.edu/stures/compsbergdahl/dispersal.html Dispersal in a wolf pack is a defining trait and a critical tendency of pack dynamics. The dispersal of individual wolves allows for diversity in packs and the formation of new packs. Wolves disperse from their natal pack between 9 and 36 months of age (Mech et al., 1998).
The dispersing wolf is often called a floater. This lone wolf may travel great distances looking for a new pack to join, or perhaps a lone wolf of the opposite sex to mate with and establish a new pack.
Studies have shown that floaters occupy home ranges larger than those of resident wolves, and their range overlaps broadly with several pack ranges (Siller-Zubiri, 1994). In one instance, a female wolf left a study area in Minnesota and was shot by a farmer in Saskatchewan, five hundred miles away (Steinhart, 1995). I'm still going with actual lone wolf needing company, initially attracted by the dogs. It didn't KILL thedog because it wsn't in that frame of mind is all. Just my $0.02, Birdwatcher

Bring your pit bull(s) and I will put you in a place where they will have contact with a wolf(wolves) inside 48 hours. If any pit bull(s) survives the encounter, I will pay the expenses for the trip. All you have to do is show up and walk them up and down a road couple times in daylight and then stay out in the are with them at night.

I don't currently own a Pitbull, and wouldn't set any dog of mine up in a fight with a poodle, let alone a wolf. Were such a fight arranged, however, in a proper fighting pit, in accordance with all applicable laws (hint: that means outside the country), one on one, 70 pound fighting weight, game bred Pitbull in his prime vs any wolf up to 120 lbs, my money goes on the Pitbull. It's a no brainer to anyone who knows the history of such arranged matches in the past. Any money placed on the wolf comes from a sucker.

Do you feel like a big, important person now? A real he-man? Whatever dude. Actually, I feel a bit embarrassed that a supposedly well-educated professor misuses such words. But, no need for you to reply like a self-conscious, crass teenager. Is that the way you respond to your students when they point out your errors, or are they even allowed to do so?

This thread is awesome!!!
Hawk: Get out from behind your 'puter a lil more often. Whens the last time you spent anytime in the woods? Hunting? Fishing?
It would do wonders to break you from your "wiki-world" and endless Youtube searches.
