4. You may use older photos you have on hand, but, do not submit a photo that has won a previous WT photo contest.
5. Any WT member may enter a photo they have taken or star in.
6. Judging – WT members will vote on monthly photo submissions.

Pulling out game - This is what hunting the ND prairie grass fields looks like.

Anyone who loves elk hunting will like this picture. Hunting and trapping wolves is never easy so a two wolf day is as good as it gets. It was the last two traps we checked that day too!

I’ve spent a ton of time outdoors hunting, fishing, hiking, camping etc. I enjoy sharing all of the photos I have. I’ve seen some pretty cool stuff and managed to get some of them on film. But next year I’m backing off on the contests I promise.ii

Joe that is so neat on the wolves
We’re they snared or in footholds? If a trap what set up

I’m a ways outside of the take areas in Idaho. We get a few stragglers down our way
We live close to Fort Hall reservation bottoms for a while a single black wolf was strolling aroundEvery dog and cat that left their yard disappeared

I guess I better get a pic up when I get back next week

I figure any dead animal with my daughters should easily beat out your mugs and mangy wolves :lol:

Lefty,
I will counter your daughter pic with a picture of my son's first duck and our dog's first ever duck retrieve! Unfortunately, that is the dog that died of heat stroke recently.
