Do we have wolves in CT? [View all]

I've been staying up in the woods northeastern CT -- we have a yurt -- and I'm used to hearing coyotes and owls and various critters. But I just heard some pretty serious howling that was not the sound of a coyote pack. A single howl, low and long, repeated a few times.

Hmm...no walks in the woods tonight!
