Possible Red Wolf Filmed While Deer Hunting (see info)

I filmed this while deer hunting in November of 2008. The video will explain itself.

I took the ability to comment off of this video because there were alot of self-appointed wildlife experts who insisted on telling me how this was a coyote. The first word in the title is "Possible" and like I noted in the video, the two are capable of interbreeding. HOWEVER, if you look at the color pattern of Red Wolves and knew the color of coyotes in my area (mix of creamy tan and gray with white on underbelly) then you too would understand why I introduce the possibility of Red Wolf, or at least a mix.

The fact is, I spend about two-hundred hours a year in a deerstand. I've killed alot of coyotes. I've got alot of pictures of coyotes from my spycams. None of them have ever resembled this animal other than the fact that they are canine. I also observed this animal at less than twenty yards before I turned on the camera, which gave me a pretty good perspective on size. Im guessing it at about 70-80 lbs, which is bigger than nay coyotes around here. At the very beginning of the footage. you may notice two parallel depressions in the grass...These are truck tracks. Kind of puts the length in perspective.

ANYWAY, I guess for now I will call it a UCB (Uncertain Canine Being)
