- Canis lupus. [underlined]
Jasper, Alta. [Alberta] May 3/45 [1945]
From Warden F.J. McGuire.
In 1943 the last wolf tracks seen were
on Dec. [December] 15 when 13 or 14 in a band
came up the Smoky + over onto the
Moose.
In 1944-45 winter there were 6 or
7 on the boundary but they did not
range up into the park.
In summer of 1944 there were
two wolves working the area. They
ranged back + forth across Byng
Pass + up the Smoky. They did not
produce pups.
When snow crusts wolves come
up river in winter otherwise they
do not.
Ed Macdonald remarks on the
absence of wolves along the
Rocky + Maligne Valleys.
On April 30 Brosnett saw a
black wolf at Pocahontas. A few days
before that a fresh elk kill was
found at mile 21 + the spreader [word crossed out] grader
man saw the wolf.
Bob Jones found a fresh moose
kill at Willow Cr. [creek] on April 28 +
noted one lot of wolf tracks just
beyond milk river
He has seen signs of several abortive
chases after deer in deep snow.
