When she had pups, my grandfather got one of them. We named him Roscoe. When he was almost a year old, we took it to the vet for shots. The veterinarian took a blood sample and a couple weeks later called my grandfather and told him the test came back and the father was a grey wolf. <br /><br />This was back in the 80's (Roscoe P. Coltrane), so I don't know about now, but there was at least one wolf roaming those hills and woods back then.<br /><br />At less than a year it weighed over 100 lbs and at full growth weighed close to 150.Shanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09796605725594056206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3113182078732942696.post-49015962148247329252015-09-23T17:20:36.826-07:002015-09-23T17:20:36.826-07:00According to the Oregon Fish and Game folks, no Wo...According to the Oregon Fish and Game folks, no Wolves yet in the Portland environs,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Coyotes, Wolves and Cougars foreverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05594002891926526543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3113182078732942696.post-51369479451306430612015-09-22T05:48:29.575-07:002015-09-22T05:48:29.575-07:00Are there wolves in Portland, Tn.?
