In any of this reading, which I realize is only a handful so far, I've found nothing that would indicate to me that the larger Canadian/Siberian wolves existed anywhere except near the Canadian border and then only during certain times as TR pointed out. All explorers indicate the difficulty in distinguishing between the common wolf and the coyote. Thanks for the input. SR – Well said.

Thanks for the input.
