One of our readers from Eastern Ontario, sends us this report - Once while driving on Hwy 17 between Hawkesbury and the 417, I saw a Wolf waiting to cross the highway, it was standing on the snowbank shortly after dusk.

Frequently between St. Eugene and Voyager Park, you can hear them howling, much different than the cry of the Coyote.

It literally sends chills up my spine, and in the winter when they are close by, you can smell them in the air, before you see or hear them, more so than in the summer.

Thank you for sending this report to us, I'm sure our visitors will enjoy reading about your experiences!

Hawkesbury is between Ottawa and Montreal, near the Ottawa River.

Driving north on Hwy 17 100 kms south of Wawa, I saw a gray wolf chasing a moose when it crossed 17 and both animals ran into wooded bush, heading east. Very cool to see this a 3:30 pm. Sunny day.

I have just seen a wolf walking down the side of our rural road in north Stormont, Ontario and then it went into the quarry.

I saw a Wolf on the same stretch of highway, must have been back around May to June time when I was heading back to Hawkesbury from Montreal. It was about 8 pm or so, and was near the road just around Voyager park. He was right by the road side and didn't seem the least bit bothered about the traffic on the road.
