Is there a prevalent Wolf population in the area? Honest question.
I grew up camping that backcountry and have never seen a wolf.
Coyotes? Yes. Bears, cougars, marmots, porcupine?
Yup. Wolves? No.
My brother's dog was part wolf, he wore a 4" red collar for this reason. He was always worried about this happening.
The idiot fired a shot that struck a dog only ten feet from another person. .
How do you know this to be true?
Was this confirmed by the investigation?
It was stated in the media release, and nobody is denying it.
Media release. Then it must be factual and accurate.It was stated in the media release, and nobody is denying it.

She was not hit or even grazed so not close enough obviously. I was almost struck by a car but it didn't happen so a non-event.If it was 15 or 20 feet, that is still way too close.

Had this woman not been trespassing (and had been repeatedly told to stay out) this occurrence would have never happened. She needs to share the blame.

With the new information about where she was, I don't think I'm interpreting this wrong in the slightest bit. The journalist reported what was told to them. "Lucille Lake" would make this much more controversial than "gravel pit I wasn't allowed into" And I can certainly understand a National paper saying "near Whistler" as it would make more sense to their national readers.
.
And I am also explaining from a geography perspective that Daisy Lake would have actually been a more accurate description for anyone interested in the story as 100% of the people that have been to Whistler have seen Daisy Lake, while only a miniscule amount know where Lucille is. But if you want to whip the local masses into a frenzy, best identify the area you don't want hunters as the popular recreation area, and not the quarry that you weren't supposed to be in anyway.
I have not heard this, but I am not surprised. I suppose she could pursue civil litigation with her new found wealth, but there is also the tresspass thing.
I am not saying that she wasn't also to blame, but what kind of hunter doesn't realize that he is looking at a number of dogs accompanied by people? And to shoot that close to people is certainly not responsible.
Did you think for a moment he may not have seen her? That he was not aware of her presence at all. He was hunting; do you expect a hunter to yell out before pulling the trigger on a animal?Shoot in my general direction and there will be a storm abrewing in your camp sir.
15 feet or 20 feet regardless if it is a legal game animal one is trying to harvest someones teeth are gonna get.....

I wouldn't be happy either but trying to punch a armed person in the face would not be the smartest course action to take.
How about all waiting for the investigation to be completed before hanging the guy in public.
Sigh.....
