We saw our first wolves the other day, after hearing howling at night for several days. While we were finishing dishes from a lunch group the wolf watchers pulled into our parking area and pointed their scopes out across the valley. Went out on the back porch with a scope and saw five wolves pulling away on some kind of carcass. Ravens waiting their turn. Could see flesh hanging from their jaws. Later that evening the coyotes were on the carcass after the wolves had left. You really needed the scope. Binoculars just showed there was some critters out there.
