Wolves of the High Arctic – Research on the Arctic Wolves of Ellesmere Island

An empty den, disappointing but not discouraging.

Mech and Medwid- We travelled out to the traditional den this evening and found it unoccupied. Although a big disappointment this does not necessarily mean that the wolves aren't around or they don't have pups; they could have had them elsewhere. We will begin to start searching for them in other places later today. We did see an arctic fox, two other groups of musk oxen from the ground and found the remains of one eaten by wolves this past winter.
