Possible wolf sightings near Colfax, other areas

The potential sighting of three wolves near Colfax Monday was unconfirmed by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), which also said it has not confirmed wolf sightings in the last couple of months.

Jared Stamper, LaCrosse, posted a photo to Facebook Monday morning after he spotted three wolves in the hills near Steptoe. His caption read, “Just thought I’d share this with Whitman County, these three fellas are just outside of Colfax heading towards town, coming from Steptoe side.” He posted the photo to a Colfax Facebook page.
