Re: Let’s talk.
Has anyone started running the wolves with hounds yet?

Not that I’m aware of but believe that’s not legal but I’d have to look into it. I have a buddy who runs coyotes with sight hounds that are pretty large and he thinks he could get it done.

I know they had a lot of success with it in Wisconsin or Minn before they banned wolf hunting in general. They just used their coyote bred running walkers in good size packs and they learned that once the wolves figured out they were the ones being hunted they would break up and run.
This blew me away originally because I just figured the wolves would just turn and fight and kill all the dogs but that was not the case at all. They were posting pics of huge wolves caught, one was a black wolf I remember and they say he weighed like 140lb.

Re: Let’s talk.
I’ve read about that some, stuff I saw said they were only turn out 1 or 2 dogs on a single track. Sounds very exciting and I would love to give it a go.

It seems to put a healthy respect in the wolves towards hounds. But who knows.
