The Voyageurs Wolf Project is focused on understanding the summer ecology of wolves in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem, Minnesota, USA. Our over-arching goal is to couple cutting-edge, rigorous wolf research with highly-effective outreach and education.

Every summer they capture some stunning wildlife. Recently, pups were born in the wild. They grow fast, in just a couple of weeks they will be this size.
