Non-Typical Solutions

And then there's this going on unrelated to wolves but same difference Mountain lion kills California family’s dogs in broad daylight https://fox2now.com/news/national/mountain-lion-kills-california-familys-dogs-in-broad-daylight/

Two summers ago, we were fishing Lake Mary, out in the boat and we got pulled over by G$F to check for fishing license. As we were showing him our legal status we visited about a pair of wolves that they currently were trying to catch just north of Belmont and re-locate! This also happened just recently.....it is interesting that the wolfers don't realize that all animals come in conflict with civilization when they don't stay where the wolfers told them to stay!!! A Mexican gray wolf named Taylor (M3065), known for his repeated journeys north of the designated recovery area, was found dead after being hit by a vehicle on Interstate 40 in New Mexico over the weekend of January 17-18, 2026 Key Details of the Incident: Location: The incident occurred on I-40 near Grants, New Mexico, not Arizona, though the wolf was known to traverse wide areas. The Wolf: Taylor was a nearly three-year-old male from the Elk Horn pack in Arizona, identified as a "boundary-defying" wolf for his determination to live in suitable habitat north of the I-40 boundary. History: Taylor was first located near Mount Taylor in spring 2025, moved to the Gila National Forest by wildlife officials, and subsequently returned to the Mt. Taylor area twice. Significance: Taylor was the 11th Mexican gray wolf known to have spent time north of I-40 and the fifth in the Mount Taylor area. His death highlights the dangers of the interstate to endangered species and has renewed calls for improved wildlife crossings. Wolf Conservation Center +5 "Taylor's tragic death reminds us that our lobos need more from state and federal wildlife agencies if they are to truly recover and thrive as a species," said Leia Barnett of WildEarth Guardians.

One of my favorite youth hunts!!!! Congratulations!!!

Another one to chalk up for Hobbs

Yep................

I still call it the 666, 191 just doesn't fit. I hadn't been down that for many years it is a great scenic drive and it always amazes me just how much country there is out there. Took a couple of mules in a horse trailer down and then back up to lower Eagle Creek up into Honeymoon years ago! I've been on the Million Dollar Highway in Colorado but that highway has nothing on the 666!!!

That was a dominating Michigan team, nothing went right for AZ, everything went right for Michigan..................OUCH!!!!

This is probably bogus but would be great!

And................................very fun shooting prarie dogs!!!!

I watched a documentary by G$F, it is probably 4-5 years old talking about the plague and its damage to the AZ prarie dog population. They have been trying to re introduce the ferret to northern Az but becaue of the plague they had to postpone that project as prarie dogs are a popular diet for ferrets. March 6 they reintroduced ferrets in northern az. https://www.azgfd.com/2026/03/16/endangered-black-footed-ferrets-released-in-northern-arizona/
