If you don't have a FoxPro try using your voice.
Maybe watch some videos first. I find just the longest whaling Howl works good. I have called in wolves several times as well as a few people I know have done it as well. Try it you will be very surprised how good it works.
My Howl does not sound very good to me. But it has worked more often than not. Didn't always result in a shot but usually some action.
Biggest problem using your voice is they know exactly where you are.
Good luck

I Have heard that if you set the scene of yotes catching a fawn or calf in distress that wolves will come in to kick the yotes ass. Predator masters forum is a good spot.

Talk to RedFrog on the forum here. He is very good at killing wolves and Yotes. He also was a sale rep for Foxpro as well if I remember right and at least can lead you in the right direction.

I don't have a ton of wolf calling experience, but I know some stuff and its not the same as coyotes.
-wolves don't follow the "they come in down wind" rule as much as coyotes. they come in from whereever the helll they feel like it.
-If you can get them howling back and forth to you, they are commited to coming in.
-they dislike having another wolf in their area a lot. So wolf howl at them and they will come in angry.
-like above someone said you give away your spot with them when you howl, but this is good. Just make sure you have good visibility all the way around because you don't know where they will come in to you.

Google should be able to help you find some helpful sounds.
This site took about 20 seconds of searching.....

Do some googling, lot of downloadable sounds on the net and not just on hunting oriented sites. Found one 20 minute sequences. Now, I just need to figure out a way to get the volume I need.

I sold Redfrog a canopy, he told me what has been mentioned. Find wolf sign and let fly with the coyote calls. Wolves come in looking to hurt some coyotes.
