That is correct.

A couple months ago I had just finished a week long backpacking trip, was taking off my hiking boots and putting on shoes that were better suited for driving, someone in the parking lot says - hey, is that a wolf? Fortunately my camera was right there. Photo is cropped from the original, I only had my point and shoot camera. About 10 seconds after the photo, it was gone.



Northern Minnesota, a few miles north of Lake Superior.

Too bad I did not have a tracker handy, I could have run towards it and tried to put a tracker on it. <Joking.>

I think that is the first time I have seen a wolf in at least five years, that was a real surprise. They always see you before you see them.
