I could believe every bit of 230 lbs. If the holder is 6 feet tall, that wolf is at least 7 feet long, and mostly bulky body. Never have I seen one like that. Find yourself in the woods with a six shooter, and the pack is 10 you are going to hope for no scent and being very quiet in a tall tree. That is one reason, wolves should NOT be reintroduced into areas my forefathers cleared them out of.

A 230lb wolf defeats the point of a wolf. The weight is too big to serve a purpose of a efficient, mobile carnivore. He's a large wolf, but not 230lbs.
