BROKEN ARROW, Okla. —
Quick Facts:
FOX23 crews spoke to families near 51st and Lynn Lane, who say they saw one in broad daylight.
People told FOX23 they thought it was a grey wolf.
Wildlife Diversity Biologists told FOX23 the wolf was likely not 100 percent wolf, but a wolf/dog hybrid. Those animals are exempt from wildlife statutes because they are not full wolves.
They said it is likely a hybrid animal got away from its owner or was dumped by an owner who did not want it anymore.
Families in the area are concerned for the safety of their children and animal.
