I think how different things would be if wolves at some point in mankind's past, were not attracted to a kind human voice and sharing of a bone. What if at the same time moose were that easily lured in with a handful of grass and wanted to hang around for more? I think we got the best deal with what became domesticated dogs.

TAKWI here, from riverside county California. I spend weekends in the forests of Palomar Mountain and Mount San Jacinto. Lots of history in this area. thanks

OMG, that "list" is the perfect opposite of the "good list"........of needed toys!........ The grown man's version of the child's list mailed to Santa.

I did a re-enactment on Saturday, May 4th 2019. The TOP of what I saw was at 8 ft 4 inches. It made me look tiny. I posted info and images in the BFRO report thread: I did not see the head or even the top of the shoulder, as it was already ducking down when I saw it. I still think 9'6" could be the height, but I changed the SSR entry to 9 feet anyway. I'll just have to go see it again to get another measurement We found 15-16 inch tracks on Saturday as well, further into the woods from this spot. They are not well detailed, and possibly months old, but are 15" long, 7 inches wide, with 31" to 35" step. I'm learning the hard way how tough it is to get good pictures of tracks. In this spot, the tracks should remain so I'm going to try again. I may need to bring some spray paint to highlight them. These were deep impressions with no detail, filled with leaves. I'd have never noticed except I parked my car exactly in the spot to have one of them right outside my car door. I didn't have my camera handy so I went back yesterday to snap these pictures. The track were not as "inline" as I would expect. There is a definite left/right pattern. That 99 cent yard stick was sure handy to have on hand.
