Sad to know that members pack is in deep mourning given how social and complex wolf packs are. But you know........Conservation, as humans keep mowing down forests and building more and more into their habitat then shoot them in the name of ‘conservation’
panini800 “mourning”, you forgot to add the hard fact they eat each other when wounded or dead. Also, don’t leave out the proven fact numerous females have pups and the alpha female decides which ones to kill and eat or let live. Lose injecting human emotions into animals. Get informed by those WILLING to share the honest facts.
@@proguide66 I hauled livestock for years here in the United States and it was simply amazing how some people looked at all animals as needing conservation and were looked at like animals while others would look at them as if they were equal to us humans and or give them human characteristics which I think is completely disturbing. Wether your religious or not it says in the bible that God gave us his greatest creation the power and control over everything else here on this planet.
Your ignorance on this topic is not only astounding, but disturbing. You are the delusional one who is nothing more than a intellectual dinosaur. If you drive a car, live in a house, and eat food, you are a murderer who has others do their dirty work. The very nature of our existence is reliant on the death of other living things. Be it plant or animal. Same goes for all of nature. Hunters, who are far more connected to the land than you. Are the ones who see the reality that you just strap virtue signaling emotions to. Grow up.
@@bendaves77 How many times have you heard dogs and cats referred to as fur babies!! The consideration for pets has superseded the well being of People..and we have generation Useless to thank..
howtohunt.com here in northern Alberta we have the largest wolves in the world that have evolved to hunt wood buffalo. Our timber wolves are well over 200 pounds of pure eating and killing machines. Packs of 30 plus are common and can eat a moose every day and more if they get a chance. They are out of control in this part of Alberta and are decimating deer and moose populations. It is true. They eat the grey wolves and coyotes whenever they get a chance. I wish we could use recordings to hunt here in Alberta because you can only get them to come only part way by calling by mouth. They know. I have seen one wolf take a deer by itself more than once. A close friend who guides for wood buffalo has seen a large timber wolf take a bi bull buffalo by himself. They are nothing but killing machines. Fish and wildlife in this province needs to allow us to help keep the population down by letting us every advantage to keep these wolves from wiping out the deer and moose from this area. Some places it is already too late. Keep,up the good work Steve.
I live in East Tennessee. When I say east I really mean east, some might say I live in western North Carolina. We don’t have wolves, but we do have coyotes. When these guys move in to the area , game disappears and every other living small animal as well. It reveals a predator vs prey population curve that you typically see when studying fox vs rabbit. The only difference is the entire big game and small animal population starts to decline while theirs increases until they have wiped it out. They will not regulate themselves so if you wish to see life around an area you had better do something. Thanks for supporting conservation.
I live in North Western NC and we have red wolves and coyotes. Not so many wolves but the coyotes are over running everything. If i kill two, ten more will show up.
@daniel bean i know of one that was killed a few miles from my house her in NC that weighed in well over 120 lbs. It was attempting to kill and eat a calf when instead it caught a severe case of lead poisoning!
Jon Julian Coyotes killed a red fox family that lived on my property. And I live 7 miles west of Downtown Minneapolis. 2nd rung suburb. Years before that, one of the coyote clan stalked my brothers friend walking his small dog at 9pm At night. Wolf spotted for the 1st time 10 miles west of my property. Just a matter of time before they grab a toddler in broad daylight here in Minnesota. Our ancestors would have taken care of that.
I'm not a hunter and I love most animals. With that being said I understand that conservation is a necessity. Side note, me n my dog found this video interesting af! Thanks Steve
Bear C137 Thanks for understanding the need to manage all species! I know you said you’re not a hunter, but have you ever considered trying it out? I think you might enjoy it.
Ingrid Garcia-thank you for your considerate reply. To be clear, I do not enjoy the act of killing an animal. That is a common misconception about hunters. I enjoy the entire process, the challenge, the beauty of the wilderness and wildlife, the lifestyle. I also feel remorse when I kill an animal, but hunting is about so much more than just the act of killing; that is why it is called hunting, not killing. To reduce the hunting lifestyle down to the act of killing and imply that such is our motivation and source of pleasure is akin to claiming that people become friends because they like to argue and cause misunderstanding, or have kids because they like to beat them. These analogies are not great, but they point out how such assertions remove all of the meaning and complexity from an incredibly beautiful thing and focus on an unfortunate, yet valuable and necessary part of the process, turning it into something perverse in the process. Killing an animal is one of the reasons why I hunt, but that is a means to procure food, not an end in itself. This act is unfortunate but necessary for me to obtain the meat. There are also many other reasons why I hunt, and together they bring a sense of meaning to my life that I cannot fully understand or articulate. To say that I hunt because I enjoy causing an animal to suffer, or that I hate animals, is the diametric opposite of the truth. In the same way, conflicts between friends are one of the sad results of sin, but only an evil individual would suggest that causing conflict is the reason why people form friendships. Finally, discipline is a part of rearing children, and as Proverbs 13:24 says, “He who withholds his rod hates his son, but he who loves him disciplines him diligently.” This is a picture of healthy parenting. And where I come from, beating one’s (or anyone else’s) children needlessly is known as child abuse. The sad truth is that this perversion of the idea of hunting from a healthy, meaningful lifestyle to an avenue of animal cruelty is propagated throughout our society and those of other first world countries, whose inhabitants (as a general rule) are so “civilized” that they are completely removed from the actual process of producing and procuring food. And this separation causes many to forget-or never to learn-that though they paid for someone else to do the dirty work, the meat they eat still came from a living, breathing animal. Many people also fail to recognize the other impacts they have on wildlife, such as supporting the steel industry, using electricity, building a house, or putting up a fence. To be clear, I am not saying these things are necessarily bad, but that before someone makes an assessment of the ethics of hunting, it would be wise of them to examine their own life and determine the real effects of their lifestyle on wildlife. Ingrid, I appreciate you calling me out and voicing your concerns, and that you did it in a respectful and reasonable manner. I hope this helped to clarify things for you. God bless you and your family!
@@josie4065 well said. Hunters and trappers get a bad rap. Like everything their is some bad eggs out there. But it's conservation and people don't knowledge themselves. They are too quick to fire at a person who is a hunter or trapper. This is so well and respectfully expressed 👍
Management of bovine ranchers is also necessary to the overall health and balance in an ecosystem. If grazing rights on public lands were managed correctly there would be an increase in game animal herds and more food for wolves to eat and less attacks on bovine herds, not to mention more game for hunters . Anyone believe that is even a possibility in todays political charged environment? Until then, one things for sure, wolves have been on this planet longer than humans and will be long after humans burn themselves off this beautiful big blue marble floating in space. GO WOLVES!
I'm only at the 3 minute mark, and the sound quality of the recordings playing from the bluetooth speaker to the camera that Steve is recording on is incredible. Wow!
@@ericteipen - A good example of "you get what you pay for" You can get a good one on Ebay for a reasonable price. I think quality is important in order to fool the Wolves.
Appreciate the disclosure. Not a big fan of this side but I respect it & more importantly I RESPECT YOU STEVE! You deserve a thumbs up from a minute of my watch time. Keep doing you and keep on inspiring us.
Charlotte On 7:06 mark Steve says he followed the wolf pack across the river, then @7:22 mark after feeding his horses 🐎 and @7:28 mark he used the single wolf call to call the wolf pack that have been bothering his beautiful horses 🐴 so I believe the dead wolf is one from that same pack.
Mr. Steve didn't make the problems of deforestation for the wild life. An no matter how inhuman it may seem to be he does what needs to be done. I have respect for him I don't think he kills for the glory or fun of it. An what he is doing is helping the packs be healthier and stronger. An trust me when I say this, if this MAN was killing for pure joy the WHOLE pack would be dead before sun up. Mr. Steve what you do isn't pretty but really needed to be done THANK YOU for doing the job with a sense of compassion and respect for the wolfs pack. Your a great man!
Sad that panin800 doesn't understand the entire scope of this subject. Thank you for all you do for us. We appreciate your apps and love your vids. Be safe
That was excellent Steve, thank you! Cool that you can play or pause the call to fit the situation...I've experienced some recordings that absolutely screwd things up..in the clutch moment!
Steve brother I started watching you for your hunting videos and stories .. you have walked a few hundred miles in my boots ! Never have to ask me whether I wanna watch a hunting video !
Couple of questions, when you spot your first wolf after calling do you wait to see more before shooting the first one; what is the speaker your using(looks like a JBL); what's the average range your having to hit them at? I was working up a 110 grain load for my 30:06, is that too light for wolves?
Not a hunter. Really dig this channel because i get to learn about many aspects of nature as it is currently. Breath of fresh air. Dont change for anyone Steve.
A range card is a good idea. We used them in the army. What it is, is a drawing of the area you are in with all the landmarks and obvious lanes of travel marked and identified with the ranges written down. Very effective especially if you are new to the area. For instance, if your machine gun crew gets knocked out, anyone can take over the position and have the ranges laid out for you. Great video Steve.
No interest? Yeah right, this is wholly fascinating in it's far cry from my city life in central England 😝 Oh, and my yampy dog really liked those howls too! He was clambering up onto my lap to listen close to my PC speakers, tilting his head one way then the other, and growling - which made me laugh, because a springer spaniel would last about as long against a wolf as a fart in a hurricane! Like I said; yampy
Good kit Steve. I add a little, inexpensive item. I take an aluminum target arrow, strip the fletches and drill a small hole through the nock and using a short length of monofilament tie a good sized turkey feather on. I set my caller off at an angle with the arrow/feather jammed in the ground a little beyond. Once I get them reed caller close I switch to a jackrabbit distress, hopefully there's a breeze and that feather is moving around riveting their attention. I hunt in, somewhat, close cover, shots are rarely over 90 meters. They're approaching focusing on the lure and often present broadside. I made it practical/portable by stowing it in a length of dry capped PVC pipe strapped to my pack. Good hunting!
Just purchased the app Steve but for photography not hunting. I’ve always thought it’s the same up until we pull the trigger with different consequences lol. Thanks for all the great info.
Thank you for the wolf hunting tips! I would love more like this! I have only trapped one wolf, and have had zero luck hunting them. CONGRATS on that grey!
Thanks for the honest facts Steve, again. Those that do not live with this reality outside their door every day and see the depletion of undulates year after year have no credibility or experience to speak with. I can attest to the effectiveness of the calls on your app and your techniques. Fine work sir.
Good stuff! Thanks Steve! I’ve a question regarding gun storage. Do you bring your rifles indoors to a warm area or do you keep them cold? I’ve read mixed reviews from hunters up north. The constant heating and cooling of rifles and the effects the processes could have on the accuracy of them.
Josh Frank agreed. I know if I’m going to be in and out multiple times a day, I’ll leave it in the cold when it’s safe to do so, once I’ve gotten it collected off for the day.
Excellent Steve !!! So hopeful and hands-on... Dumb question, I'm not great with computer skills. I want to get that caller you have and wolf app, How do I purchase both of them? We have a serious wolf problem in NW Montana, moose are almost extinct, elk are diminished, and it's getting worst each year. I really appreciate your knowledge and helping us out !!! Thank You...
The idiots who built roads into the areas should be paying out the rear end for wolf bounties The faster a grip on wolf population, The less we will see of total wolf annihilation of herds Its a dam shame, corporations started the mess, But hunters will have to correct it
Great educational video! Watching this was like taking a course in wolf hunting. You explained the theory very well, showed the methodical evidence in your calls and gear, related the setup for the hunt and most importantly the result of the application learned here today! You are truly a bad ass teacher! Now, go get some more!
Very informative!! I've had 2 hip replacements and my left foot totally reconstructed and basically sewed back on, so I can't do the hard hunting anymore, but I've really started getting into Coyote hunting. I noticed you had Coyote calls on your app as well. I assume you have the app set up for Coyote hunting too. Correct me if I'm wrong Steve. Take care.
if you're going to hunt coyotes kill the entire pack or all the females will go into heat and have 2-3 pups each damn fuckers survived that way all along.
@@Mr.Potato420,were I live, there is no limit on them, and the next state to me is Virginia and they have, or did have, a $50 bounty on everyone you could bring in. they're a problem for sure.
North Carolina Set out 125 pairs. Of rattlesnakes to Then out the Turkey population. After they kept the season clothes for 8 years. That didn't work. So they sent out coyotes. These governments Should hire real experienced Hunters To take care of our Wild Life. I'm ashamed. To tell you The really dumb stuff they did.
Thats pretty funny! N.C. put out 125 pairs of rattlesnakes to thin out the turkey population,,,, so that didnt work and they turned coyotes loose! This is supposed to be a joke ? Right? Nobody would actually make a story up like this or think it was true if told to them.
Why would the state put out 250 rattlesnakes, what is the logic behind that? And where would they get 250 rattlesnakes? It seems here in N.C. there is plenty of predators allready, and rattlesnakes dont prey on turkey, mabye a hatchling but there's plenty of other snakes here if that were the case, are they supposed to randomly bite them? I think somebody was feeding you a story, sounds like a backwoods rumor if I ever heard one.
@@Bothrops54 I listened to two game wardens taking a break right outside the window of the store I was running. They do a lot stranger things than that. They put out millions of ladybugs to eat the blite off the trees that were dying. We scooped them out of a church with snow shuffles. It was in a place called edgemont. By the way. Thanks for calling me a liar. You should get out more. There's a big world out there full of amazing things and people. Being I'm such a liar. See if you can tell us what they put out to get rid of the ladybugs. Nobody likes them. Just a hint.
If only people realized what true conservation is, In nature there is a unwritten law. The strongest survive. We are not out to decimate the population of wolves ! We are trying to keep a balance between predator and prey. This very fine line is the responsibility of all of us whom enjoy nature. As hunters we want an equal balance. When the scales tip in one direction we need to try and balance it. Yes, WE as humans.....Top of the food chain and with the ability to reason....! A perfect fit....Responsible conservationist. Thanks Steve, for all you do and all you have done. I live in an area where the Coyotes are out of control,I have taken on the arduous task of thinning the amount of predators in my local area. It is very bad when the amount of predators weighs heavier than prey. The end results are a gruesome reminder of lack of conservation. They get the Mange and starvation, this is more gruesome than hunters controlling their numbers. It is much more humane also.
Good video Steve. I’m in my late 60s now and most of my huntin days are over. But I sure love to hear your accounts and tips. I just spend my time riding my Harley over this great country enjoying the scenery. Take care out in the wild young man.
@Moonlit Meadow I'm not opposed to thinning out the population for conservation reasons. I really am curious what he does with the dead wolves. Bury them, burn them, is there somewhere they take them so the fur can be repurposed?
I read an article years ago about a hunter who used scavenger bird calls to lure predators in heavy timber country. I think it was raven calls. It was not a run and gun method where he stayed on one stand for 15 minutes or half an hour and moved on to another stand as we see in many predator hunting videos. It was more of an all afternoon thing, but had proved effective for the guy that wrote the article. The mention of using these sounds in Steve’s video is the first time I’ve heard this mentioned since then, and the article appeared many years ago.
I hate them. Right now, I have 3 or 4 adolescents following my every move with them. The FAA will do nothing. Sick, sadistic, little turds. Too bad their parents aren't parenting its gonna cost them big time eventually. I feel bad for the next victim. Kids running the show, who would have believed that shit 20 yrs ago?
I was Elk hunting in S.W. Colorado,I was surrounded by 3 packs of coyotes. They were howling and sounding off on 3 sides of me. Unnerving. Had my .300 and my .41 mag ready. Love the mountains,but not that.
I don't hunt but I love ur vids. U make them so interesting. Such a great story teller n so knowledgable. So funny how u started with hunting stories and now u do so much sasquatch which is how I found ur channel. But I want to teach my son how to hunt n be in the woods. Ur such an interesting guy.
Every state has people who will mentor young hunters, and there are often programs available through the Game and Fish Dept. You may want to check into them in your area for your son.
@@latigomorgan Oh, wow, that's great. I didn't even think about that. I have four brothers. And none of them hunt like a lot but none of them does, but he doesnt take my son out to do anything like that, which is kind of sad. But He's involved in his church with the Men, Royal rangers for a long time and they go do camping and stuff, but they don't really hunt at all. I'm definitely going to look into that because I would love my son to learn more of this stuff and I would too. He's really into Bows and arrows my dad got him a really nice compound bow for Christmas, but he just goes outside by himself and tries to shoot in targets, but that would be amazing. If somebody can help Mentor him. I know he would love that so much and it would have focused so much his energy on that in a positive way.
@@blueeyed917 A very easy way to get him started is enroll him in a Hunter's Safety course. I've never seen one that wasn't free for kids - usually taught by volunteers through the Game and Fish Dept.
@@latigomorgan That's amazing because I've been a single parent my son's whole life and he's 12 now. So anything I could save on money. Would be amazing. . That's what's sad is I try to give everything after my son but I'm trying to find like odd jobs here and there so that I can be home to be with him. So if we could find something like after he gets out of school or because of his dad's on the weekends, but other than that, we've church Wednesday night, but that's it. I could take him any other time during the week. Any free lessons about anything I know would make it and feel amazing. So Thank you so much for your input. So happy I found this channel because I came here for the Sasquatch videos cuz I've been researching him for years, but just listening to testimonies and seeing everybody's comments and just being able to talk about stuff. I feel like I'm part of something. And I feel like people care. Enough to put the effort in to Share their wisdom with other people in a loving way. Not in a cocky way or condescending way.

Not a hunter. Really dig this channel because i get to learn about many aspects of nature as it is currently. Breath of fresh air. Dont change for anyone Steve.
I would love to see the full hunt! Awesome job Steve.
What do you do with the hides? Do you make anything with them, or sell them?
"Ravens and predators go together."
I wonder if he noticed ravens hanging around when he's had sasquatch experiences.
Love the music at the end of your videos.
A range card is a good idea. We used them in the army. What it is, is a drawing of the area you are in with all the landmarks and obvious lanes of travel marked and identified with the ranges written down. Very effective especially if you are new to the area. For instance, if your machine gun crew gets knocked out, anyone can take over the position and have the ranges laid out for you. Great video Steve.
Smoke a pack a day 👍
Bahahaha
Heeheehee
No interest?
Yeah right, this is wholly fascinating in it's far cry from my city life in central England 😝
Oh, and my yampy dog really liked those howls too! He was clambering up onto my lap to listen close to my PC speakers, tilting his head one way then the other, and growling - which made me laugh, because a springer spaniel would last about as long against a wolf as a fart in a hurricane! Like I said; yampy
Hey, I understand springers are good bird dogs.
Great content as always! Idaho is the last bastion of freedom in the Pac. N.W.
Yeah the Libtards have taken over Oregon and Washington. Stay free of them, Idaho, Stay free
Good kit Steve. I add a little, inexpensive item. I take an aluminum target arrow, strip the fletches and drill a small hole through the nock and using a short length of monofilament tie a good sized turkey feather on. I set my caller off at an angle with the arrow/feather jammed in the ground a little beyond. Once I get them reed caller close I switch to a jackrabbit distress, hopefully there's a breeze and that feather is moving around riveting their attention. I hunt in, somewhat, close cover, shots are rarely over 90 meters. They're approaching focusing on the lure and often present broadside. I made it practical/portable by stowing it in a length of dry capped PVC pipe strapped to my pack. Good hunting!
Just purchased the app Steve but for photography not hunting. I’ve always thought it’s the same up until we pull the trigger with different consequences lol. Thanks for all the great info.
Thank you for the wolf hunting tips! I would love more like this!
I have only trapped one wolf, and have had zero luck hunting them. CONGRATS on that grey!
What range are you taking them ? Just wondering about the wind in the mountains and all the swirling it goes on ? Many Thanks
What do you do with the carcass afterward?
This is why I dig your channel brother .... because you teach me something every time . Thanks for passing on the knowledge ..... !
Thanks for the honest facts Steve, again. Those that do not live with this reality outside their door every day and see the depletion of undulates year after year have no credibility or experience to speak with. I can attest to the effectiveness of the calls on your app and your techniques. Fine work sir.
Good stuff! Thanks Steve!
I’ve a question regarding gun storage. Do you bring your rifles indoors to a warm area or do you keep them cold? I’ve read mixed reviews from hunters up north. The constant heating and cooling of rifles and the effects the processes could have on the accuracy of them.
Bedrocker Don thank you sir.
Josh Frank agreed. I know if I’m going to be in and out multiple times a day, I’ll leave it in the cold when it’s safe to do so, once I’ve gotten it collected off for the day.
Thanks for the hunting tips. I love how you married the phone apps to the blue tooth speakers. perfect!
I’m curious as to what do you use the wolf for after the kill or what do you do with it is it just the money for his hide?
Great information... Great. I'm glad to see another lefty. What caliber and rifle is that?
Does anyone have a recommendation for a quality blue tooth speaker to use for this purpose?
Anker blue tooth $25. Wow. You wont believe it.
JBL around $100 -$130 waterproof if you want to spend more.
Thanks i will check these out
Thanks for all the video’s you do a great job. I’m glad to see someone is willing to deal with wolf issue
You make total sense and you can’t argue with success.
Steve, what Bluetooth speaker are you using. Looks good and durable
Excellent Steve !!! So hopeful and hands-on... Dumb question, I'm not great with computer skills. I want to get that caller you have and wolf app,
How do I purchase both of them? We have a serious wolf problem in NW Montana, moose are almost extinct, elk are diminished, and it's getting worst each year. I really appreciate your knowledge and helping us out !!! Thank You...
The idiots who built roads into the areas should be paying out the rear end for wolf bounties
The faster a grip on wolf population, The less we will see of total wolf annihilation of herds
Its a dam shame, corporations started the mess, But hunters will have to correct it
Downloading the app now. Enjoy your storytime that's how I got hooked
Love your vids. Thanks for sharing all your experience.
I use a 22/250 for coyotes it puts them down quick at 300 yards
The Howtohunt app is excellent
Steve, can the speaker 🔈 be too loud??? Is there a certain volume range you’re looking for?
What type sled do you ride?
Do you save the pelt or leave the hole wolf .
Steve. Are your videos sped up like fast forward?
where do i get those speakers and app
Hey, I'm actually headed out for a predator hunt right now. I looked for your apps but didn't see the predator app. Is it in your "big game" app?
Great educational video! Watching this was like taking a course in wolf hunting. You explained the theory very well, showed the methodical evidence in your calls and gear, related the setup for the hunt and most importantly the result of the application learned here today! You are truly a bad ass teacher! Now, go get some more!
Whats your main rifle setup/brand and caliber?
Another kickass video! I love the knowledge that You share with us! Hard to believe ITS FREE!!!!--ty Steve!
Very informative!! I've had 2 hip replacements and my left foot totally reconstructed and basically sewed back on, so I can't do the hard hunting anymore, but I've really started getting into Coyote hunting. I noticed you had Coyote calls on your app as well. I assume you have the app set up for Coyote hunting too. Correct me if I'm wrong Steve. Take care.
if you're going to hunt coyotes kill the entire pack or all the females will go into heat and have 2-3 pups each damn fuckers survived that way all along.
@@Mr.Potato420,were I live, there is no limit on them, and the next state to me is Virginia and they have, or did have, a $50 bounty on everyone you could bring in. they're a problem for sure.
enjoying your videos and wow the questions are forming .. cheers and thank you for posting...
Thanks for educating us on what wild animals do, how they act and the destruction some of them cause.
What is you're speaker setup..???? We do a alot of coyote hunting here in Ohio.
I think its a JBL
North Carolina Set out 125 pairs. Of rattlesnakes to Then out the Turkey population. After they kept the season clothes for 8 years. That didn't work. So they sent out coyotes. These governments Should hire real experienced Hunters To take care of our Wild Life. I'm ashamed. To tell you The really dumb stuff they did.
Thats pretty funny! N.C. put out 125 pairs of rattlesnakes to thin out the turkey population,,,, so that didnt work and they turned coyotes loose! This is supposed to be a joke ? Right? Nobody would actually make a story up like this or think it was true if told to them.
@@Bothrops54 it is the truth
@@Bothrops54 truth is stranger than fiction but true nonetheless
Why would the state put out 250 rattlesnakes, what is the logic behind that? And where would they get 250 rattlesnakes? It seems here in N.C. there is plenty of predators allready, and rattlesnakes dont prey on turkey, mabye a hatchling but there's plenty of other snakes here if that were the case, are they supposed to randomly bite them? I think somebody was feeding you a story, sounds like a backwoods rumor if I ever heard one.
@@Bothrops54 I listened to two game wardens taking a break right outside the window of the store I was running. They do a lot stranger things than that. They put out millions of ladybugs to eat the blite off the trees that were dying. We scooped them out of a church with snow shuffles. It was in a place called edgemont. By the way. Thanks for calling me a liar. You should get out more. There's a big world out there full of amazing things and people. Being I'm such a liar. See if you can tell us what they put out to get rid of the ladybugs. Nobody likes them. Just a hint.
What do you do with the wolf carcass?
What call are you using?
Is your stuff black so itll be easier to spot ?
If only people realized what true conservation is, In nature there is a unwritten law. The strongest survive. We are not out to decimate the population of wolves ! We are trying to keep a balance between predator and prey. This very fine line is the responsibility of all of us whom enjoy nature. As hunters we want an equal balance. When the scales tip in one direction we need to try and balance it. Yes, WE as humans.....Top of the food chain and with the ability to reason....! A perfect fit....Responsible conservationist. Thanks Steve, for all you do and all you have done. I live in an area where the Coyotes are out of control,I have taken on the arduous task of thinning the amount of predators in my local area. It is very bad when the amount of predators weighs heavier than prey. The end results are a gruesome reminder of lack of conservation. They get the Mange and starvation, this is more gruesome than hunters controlling their numbers. It is much more humane also.
Very enjoyable and good video and information. Thanks
Steve. Thank you going to buy a predator call this gives me more knowledge of it
Good video Steve. I’m in my late 60s now and most of my huntin days are over. But I sure love to hear your accounts and tips. I just spend my time riding my Harley over this great country enjoying the scenery. Take care out in the wild young man.
Buddy..ur awesome!!thank you for everything..especially the squatch videos..
Great video! Learned alot about which calls to use...
Steve, thanks for the advice and tips you give for hunting. Along with your hunting apps is frickin awesome! #66
What do you do with the dead wolf?
@Moonlit Meadow I'm not opposed to thinning out the population for conservation reasons. I really am curious what he does with the dead wolves. Bury them, burn them, is there somewhere they take them so the fur can be repurposed?
Glad to see you followed up on them
Thanks Steve. Good advice.
Love the videos!
What speaker system are you using there?
looks like a JBL waterproof or resistant
Good work Steve! Not glorifying it but needing it. Thank you
Do you have film of the hunt? The would like to see how the wolf came in and the shot :)
I always thumbs up a good wolf hunting show awesome video
I read an article years ago about a hunter who used scavenger bird calls to lure predators in heavy timber country. I think it was raven calls. It was not a run and gun method where he stayed on one stand for 15 minutes or half an hour and moved on to another stand as we see in many predator hunting videos. It was more of an all afternoon thing, but had proved effective for the guy that wrote the article. The mention of using these sounds in Steve’s video is the first time I’ve heard this mentioned since then, and the article appeared many years ago.
Do I do the same for coyotes? Or can u do a coyote hunt sometimr
Nice work Steve . I’m heading out this afternoon , hope we have as good a luck as you did. Keep it up man !
I meant we’re heading out this afternoon for a week of hunting. We always hunt daybreak and just before dark, been very successful the past few years.
Great video Steve!! Thanx for the insight in hunting wolves!!
Do you use drones?
I hate them. Right now, I have 3 or 4 adolescents following my every move with them. The FAA will do nothing. Sick, sadistic, little turds. Too bad their parents aren't parenting its gonna cost them big time eventually. I feel bad for the next victim. Kids running the show, who would have believed that shit 20 yrs ago?
Awesome video, great job! Thanks for sharing, God bless
Awesome video thanks for sharing this 👍
Do folks still use the pelts?
Is anyone constantly checking the woods behind Steve in his videos?
I was Elk hunting in S.W. Colorado,I was surrounded by 3 packs of coyotes. They were howling and sounding off on 3 sides of me. Unnerving.
Had my .300 and my .41 mag ready. Love the mountains,but not that.
I don't hunt but I love ur vids. U make them so interesting. Such a great story teller n so knowledgable. So funny how u started with hunting stories and now u do so much sasquatch which is how I found ur channel. But I want to teach my son how to hunt n be in the woods. Ur such an interesting guy.
Every state has people who will mentor young hunters, and there are often programs available through the Game and Fish Dept. You may want to check into them in your area for your son.
@@latigomorgan Oh, wow, that's great. I didn't even think about that. I have four brothers. And none of them hunt like a lot but none of them does, but he doesnt take my son out to do anything like that, which is kind of sad. But He's involved in his church with the Men, Royal rangers for a long time and they go do camping and stuff, but they don't really hunt at all. I'm definitely going to look into that because I would love my son to learn more of this stuff and I would too. He's really into Bows and arrows my dad got him a really nice compound bow for Christmas, but he just goes outside by himself and tries to shoot in targets, but that would be amazing. If somebody can help Mentor him. I know he would love that so much and it would have focused so much his energy on that in a positive way.
@@blueeyed917 A very easy way to get him started is enroll him in a Hunter's Safety course. I've never seen one that wasn't free for kids - usually taught by volunteers through the Game and Fish Dept.
@@latigomorgan That's amazing because I've been a single parent my son's whole life and he's 12 now. So anything I could save on money. Would be amazing. . That's what's sad is I try to give everything after my son but I'm trying to find like odd jobs here and there so that I can be home to be with him. So if we could find something like after he gets out of school or because of his dad's on the weekends, but other than that, we've church Wednesday night, but that's it. I could take him any other time during the week. Any free lessons about anything I know would make it and feel amazing. So Thank you so much for your input. So happy I found this channel because I came here for the Sasquatch videos cuz I've been researching him for years, but just listening to testimonies and seeing everybody's comments and just being able to talk about stuff. I feel like I'm part of something. And I feel like people care. Enough to put the effort in to Share their wisdom with other people in a loving way. Not in a cocky way or condescending way.
Your best informative video yet! I will try your app..
Beautiful country and nice wolf envious of your life style great video.
Would love to be able to do something like this one day. Thanks for your work in conservation Steve.
Awsome video! I need to get out up here in idaho, just found a pack last week
Just downloaded the app. Thanks Steve!
So Steve, are you using the wolf pelts? I mean they are valuable and useful. What about them?
Awesome video Steve.
Good job Steve people don't understand what they need to take alot of the wolfs population down it's so important to conservation
