I dont see the attraction tbh i would love to kill a wolf and caribou but the latter is near impossible. we might go after the wolves this winter down where the camp is 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rabid 1,936 Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Nice pics, thanks for sharing them, looks a superb way to spend your days. out of interest, when you get a good one, what happens to it, can it be skinned with head and feet left on for the trophy, would make some rug on the lounge floor, now I wonder if it’s legal to bring one back to the uk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
