This is the only interaction between a wolf and coyote we have observed during our study so far. This camera was near a carcass and the wolf seemed intent on keeping the coyote away from it. Clearly, the coyote was not too afraid as it kept returning after being chased […]
Thinking of warm spring Northwoods days and counting wolf pups on this wintry Monday morning in Voyageurs where it is -22 F outside but feels like -39 F with the wind. This Paradise Den, located under the roots of an ancient cedar, is undoubtedly one of the coolest dens we […]
The amount of wolf and bear activity on this trail during a single month (mid-Sept to mid-Oct 2021) was pretty extraordinary! Lots of other wildlife used this trail during this time too, including several moose, a lynx, fisher, marten, and others. The wolves in the video are the Whiskey Point […]
We checked cameras yesterday and got this gem of the Cranberry Bay Pack traveling together this fall at freeze-up in a remote wild part of Voyageurs National Park. Rarely do we get the entire pack in a one frame! The Cranberry Bay Pack was only 4 wolves strong last winter […]
A really nice look at 3 Cranberry Bay pups this fall, or at least what we think are 3 pups! Once pups reach the October/November period, it can be tough to tell them apart from adults. The easiest way to tell pups from adults at this time is by looking […]
To think that wolves attack and kill moose with their mouths is just crazy…just look at the the size difference. To help visualize, we overlaid a clip of the Nashata Pack traveling over a clip of two bull moose. Both videos were on the same trail taken a few weeks […]
Enjoy the various wildlife captured on a trail camera in the middle of the remote Kabetogama Peninsula deep in the center of Voyageurs National Park. All footage is from mid-September 2021 to early December 2021. This particular camera was intentionally set-up near the border of the Nashata Pack territory and […]
Starting in the middle of last summer, we noticed a strange new pair of wolves roaming around the Tamarack Pack territory. One of the wolves had a really funky short tail that made identifying this pair on camera pretty easy. Turns out, this was just like the beginning of H.G. […]
This bear just had that crazy look in his eye…the look that appears when the irresistible biological urge to destroy trail cameras emerges and takes hold. An addiction common to all bears that is manifested by compulsive camera-seeking behavior and the resulting high bears get once cameras have been destroyed. […]
A wonderful video of the Cranberry Bay Pack walking through a winter wonderland about 2 weeks ago when a snowstorm dropped ~12 inches of heavy wet snow across Voyageurs. The video is particularly wonderful because it is yet another pack count of 6 wolves for the Cranberry Bay Pack. We […]
