The close howl had me bolt upright in bed...... "Get Hannah inside!!!!!!!" I yelled. Bryan was still absorbed in his book and hadn't heard our dog's soft barks at the door. I had heard the three barks but the wolf must have heard them also. The generator was still on so after getting Hannah inside the outside lights were turned on and the inside off. We peered out the windows but couldn't see anything.
Earlier on in the day while checking the sets.... we had come across 8 fresh wolf tracks. There was also a cow moose and her young calf standing in the creek which meant the wolves had just been there and we had scared them off. The cow and calf just stared at us as we passed within 20 feet of them. No way was she getting out of the water. In water they have a fighting chance against a pack of wolves.
On the Alaskan radio channel we listen to.... we just heard that there is a warming out to a certain area to be careful because the wolves there were loosing their fear of humans.
We believe there is only one confirmed case of an Engineer/Geologist beginning killed by wolves in Saskatchewan . BUT DOGS>>>>>>The list goes on and on
