Wolves killed in Wollaston Lake area Last Updated Nov 16 2005 12:31 PM CST CBC News Tests are being done on two wolves killed in the Wollaston Lake area – the same area where the body of an Ontario man was found last week following a suspected attack by animals. According to the Canadian Press, Saskatchewan conservation officers shot the animals and sent the carcasses to Saskatoon to determine if they were the animals that killed 22-year-old Kenton Joel Carnegie. Carnegie, a third-year geological engineering student at the University of Waterloo, had been working at Points North Landing as part of his fall term co-op program. Following an autopsy, RCMP said although they couldn't say for certain he had been killed by wolves, that was the working theory. Tim Trottier, a wildlife biologist with the Environmental Department, said four wolves had been seen in the area for some time and had been showing signs of losing their natural fear of humans. Trottier said he's never heard of wild wolves killing a human. Another expert, environmental scientist Paul Paquet, said the wolves suspected of attacking Carnegie probably had prior human contact. Paquet, who has worked with wolves for 30 years, said the attack was likely instigated by the wolves' taste for garbage or waste food. "I suspect that ultimately we will find that these are garbage-habituated wolves that are either being inadvertently fed or intentionally fed in the area," he said. "That is the common thread to most wolf attacks that I've investigated." cbc.ca
