Accip74 7,112 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 How did the dog react mate. I hear they fall to pieces at the scent of wolves I'm not sure mate, I can't honestly remember what he said about the dog. The year before I'd been with him in the same spot, so I was a bit gutted I weren't there to see it myself ;-) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jukel123 6,570 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Isn't it true wolf hybrids are potentially more dangerous to people than pure bloodied wolves? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
beast 1,884 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Apparently so. But to be honest wolves in Europe are never going to be hunted so it is only a matter of time until they start to become dangerous. Look what is happening in other parts of the world. India. Russia. Even a couple of wolf kills in North America. Shooting those hybrids would be good news for everyone and having a hunting quota on pure wolves would be no bad thing a numbers increase.

ChrisJones 7,973 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Isn't it true wolf hybrids are potentially more dangerous to people than pure bloodied wolves? I would tend to agree but I'd reckon it's more to do with the artificially selected blood than the naturally selected wolf. Standards drop when the peddlers get involved and this will follow the same pattern. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greyman 25,240 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I bet them poodle owners are rubbing there hands with glee now they have another animal they can stick doodle or woodle in the title and charge a small fortune for, but on a more serious note if it's genetically possible for dogs to breed with Wolves why are,nt there hundreds of hybrids around, like the Scottish wild cat that is on the verge of being swollowed up by hybridisation so there would be a percentage of dog DNA in a lot of wolves as they have both been about for hundreds of years, wolves vary in colour from white to black so the picture shows very little to prove cross breeding, a little more research needed I think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neil cooney 10,415 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Recreate the old wolf hound? What breeds would u use The Irish Wolfhound of today is a re-created breed as the old Wolfhound was extinct and I'd say the nearest type today to the old one would be what the Yanks call their Staghound. 2 or 3 of them should handle a Wolf. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

keepdiggin 9,216 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Big enough to hunt in wolf county you better make sure you have the right dogs. I heard they started breeding the blue tick x dogo Argentina in North America to stand up to wolf attacks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
