Look: Former UC Football Player Derek Wolfe Kills Massive Mountain Lion
CINCINNATI — Derek Wolfe, a former NFL, and UC football player, killed a massive mountain lion this week in rural Colorado.
Wolfe played at UC from 2008-11 and is now retired from the sport, leaving more time to hunt problem animals.
“*Predator Control* 🚨 Late Tuesday night I got a call from @huntnest to see if I wanted to stalk a giant Tom (male mountain lion) who has been wreaking havoc in a rural neighborhood,” Wolfe wrote. “He had already killed two of her dogs and was living under her porch, nervous what he might do next. We found a fresh 4×4 mule deer he had just killed. We hiked straight up 2500ft and down the other side, then back up again, back down the other side, and then back up again to 9600ft.
“Exhausted, dehydrated, cramping I drew back my @hoytbowhunting and sent an @sevrbroadheads through him. Then I had to crawl backwards down the mountain with him to get him to the truck I fell 10ft off a rock face on the way down lol. Any guess how big this thing was?”
A crazy story from the defensive lineman turned sports talk radio host on 104.3 The Fan.
Wolfe played in the NFL from 2012-20 and retired as a Denver Bronco in July 2022.
