Shortly after wolves abandon a den, we often observe many other animals checking out the den or spending time around it. This footage shows a few examples from this past spring. In our area, wolves regularly move their pups to new dens, and we have had several packs use 4-5 […]
Beavers are critical prey for wolves in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem for a 7-8 month period of time, roughly April to October/November…i.e., when ice on lakes and ponds is largely absent. Beavers likely constitute, on average, ~30-40% of all biomass wolves obtain from predation during this period. That said, we […]
Well, thats not something you see everyday!

A fantastic glimpse of wolves (and a few other wild creatures) that occupy the most remote portion of Voyageurs National Park, the expansive and wild Kabetogama Peninsula. This camera was set at the nexus of 3 of the packs in this region—Mithrandir, Nashata, and Listening Point— last winter and you […]
A neat pair of wolves that wandered through our area late last winter: a whitish wolf and a black wolf. An easy duo to identify on camera.

The first footage of wolves eating raspberries, to our knowledge! We captured this footage last summer when the Bug Creek Pack pups spent a good while foraging for berries in this patch. Of course, we have known for a while wolves eat raspberries as we have sifted through many scats […]
A montage from last winter featuring some neat sequences of the Biondich Pack along with some fascinating wildlife clips…the up-close shot of the bobcat on the hunt is pretty cool! The Biondich Pack was one of the largest packs in our area last winter at 7 wolves (the pack consisted […]
This is a fascinating video, though not because the footage looks particularly impressive but because of what is occurring in the footage. In the video, we have Wolf V094, the breeding male of the Half-Moon Pack, on May 26, 2024 being followed closely by two coyotes. We have collected thousands […]
The breeding female of the Peatlands Pack had a golf-balled size chunk of flesh dangling off her front leg for the majority of last winter. Sustaining injuries and wounds like this is pretty commonplace for wolves who are hardy creatures that are built to sustain such things and keep on […]
A few moments from a beautiful, wild place… Big thanks to the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund for their continued support of our work, which allows us to capture this footage and share it with everyone.
