Through GPS-collar locations, remote cameras, field observations and the first wild wolf to be GPS-collared with a camera-collar, we describe when, where and how wolves fish in a freshwater ecosystem. From 2017 to 2021, we recorded more than ten wolves ( Canis lupus ) hunting fish during the spring...
