We have 16 acres, but the neighbour has 35 - all wild forest. He hunts there, but there is no house. Our neighbour beyond him, has 600 acres, as does Ian Millar on the other side. We are deliciously remote, really.<br />The wolf has lucked in with deer roadkill, too. I'm sure he picks off the turkeys, too!Jenn Jilkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05259681360456905055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-62491927698307790202014-03-27T07:33:14.208-04:002014-03-27T07:33:14.208-04:00I've seen lots of coyote's but never a wol...I've seen lots of coyote's but never a wolf in the wild.

I'm surprised you have wolves in a settled area. Wolves here are usually in the boonies. There's also a criminal plan to poison wolves here.Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996243850279671523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-18450047825522533582014-03-26T13:00:24.566-04:002014-03-26T13:00:24.566-04:00What an amazing encounter.

You can see that the wolf had clipped her, there was blood on her hind leg"...very scary, until I realized you meant the deer. I hope the smell of blood doesn't attract the wolf to her again.<br />Tell Daisy that Auntie Kay says "Hide in the linen closet and don't come out until summer."<br />Luv, K<br />PS—Did I tell you we'll be away for 10 days?

Loving the unit in Hubby's office, read the book review with interest and adore all the vids. I guess living among nature as closely as you do, accepting her harsher side is part of the deal. But it is nice to know that this one escaped!

Usually, there is road kill in the ditches, but they'd be so buried in snow.<br />I know everything has to eat, but, yes, Bambified!Jenn Jilkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05259681360456905055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-74486321834714018422014-03-23T18:40:48.208-04:002014-03-23T18:40:48.208-04:00As much as I enjoy seeing the wolves (only once, s...As much as I enjoy seeing the wolves (only once, so far) and understand the needs of nature, I would have hated to see one get one of "my" lovelies. Great capture. I hope her injury heals quickly. I hope the wolf finds an alternate food source. Sigh. I'm too Disneyfied for this. ;)Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.com
