Default Wolf snare set up

Hi H380. Although I’ve never snared wolves, I have caught hundreds of coyotes. My thinking is that you might want to set up for wolves only in the areas that they inhabit. If you were catching coyotes there, you would probably have to check your sets often. In doing so, you’d be leaving scent that would keep the wolves from coming around. If a wolf found a coyote in a snare, he’d probably eat it or shred it to pieces, and you would loose your valuable pelt, although having a coyote in a snare might help bring in the wolves as long as they don’t get too suspicious. Good luck this winter, I’m looking forward to hearing how you do. Hopefully you catch some wolves. I’d love to make sets for them, but don’t live anywhere near where it would be practical to do so.
