A wolf attack that sent a man in his 70s to hospital on May 29 has prompted the mayor of Port Edward, B.C. to take action; he's suggesting that a conservation officer should be stationed in the nearby city of Prince Rupert, and he's also calling for a possible wolf cull. Last week, conservation officers killed a lone wolf they believe could have been responsible for the attack. The nearest conservation officer is located in Terrace, 127 kilometres from Port Edward. I wouldn't be walking around on trails around Port Edward or Prince Rupert given the amount of wolves we have encountered in the last few weeks."
