Three more wolves have been killed by a freight train in Banff National Park, according to Parks Canada. (Google Maps/CBC)The incident comes just over two weeks after a wolf pup was struck and killed by a train in Banff. Earlier this year, a photographer captured a dramatic sequence of images as a wolf pack took down an elk on a railway overpass in Banff, near the turnoff to Lake Minnewanka. Concerned about the wolves' safety at the time, Parks Canada employees removed the elk carcass from the tracks. The collision happened at mile 87.5 on the CP Rail tracks, according to a Parks Canada spokesperson, which is just west of the Banff townsite.
