Are there any Grey Wolves near Forest Lakes????

[Big Browns]

A friend said she saw one this past weekend, but I didn't think their were any in that area. Anyone know if they have a pack in that area?

[oz31p]

I'm sure there are. I've seen one near long lake

They are there! I haven't seen (or at least confirmed the sighting) of one there yet but this isn't the first map I've seen or article I've read about them being in the area. This map is the furthest West I've seen yet in that area. Last I heard they were as far as Chevelon, but this seems to go past that. I have also heard from other people in the Forest Lakes area that they have seen wolves too.

Yes they are around forest lakes, Heber, Young, even if they say they aren't. I've seen one and multiple others have seen them around here. And they are supposed to or maybe already have released more towards Chevelon in 4a

I sure would hate to mistake one for a coyote while out varmint calling.

I think they are way more wide spread than we think. I also think they were still around before the reintroduction. I've heard of stories from the Navajo of people seeing wolves and even reporting them in the as early as the 80s. Right now there are wolves on the Navajo in at least two the major ranges. I'm sure they're all over the place.

i caught one eating a elk fawn 2-years ago above rim about tonto creek. it was a very fresh kill still had warm blood puddled in the chest cavity

then last year in 22 north saw two dogs i thing were wolves trying to get a elk fawn away from its mother and she was not having it they were working as a pair trying to get mom distracted and get her young

In 2012, I saw 2 north of Knoll Lake. Watched them drop down into Leonard Canyon.

 

There are more than the official number.

I'm afraid I would've had to shoot them for their efforts.
