August 1993 – Northern Maine
This young 67 lb. female wolf visited a remote campsite in the north Maine Woods in late August 1993. These are some of the only known photos of a living wild wolf in the northeast United States.
Just two days after the above photos were taken, she was killed by a bear hunter from Pennsylvania. Both he and his guide were successfully prosecuted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for the killing of a gray wolf.
