Wolves, Canis lupus , Carry and Cache the Collars of Radio-collared White-tailed Deer , Odocoileus virginianus , they Killed

Wolves ( Canis lupus ) in northeastern Minnesota cached six radio-collars (four in winter, two in spring-summer) of 202 radio-collared White-tailed Deer ( Odocoileus virginianus ) they killed or consumed from 1975 to 2010. A Wolf bedded on top of one collar cached in snow. We found one collar each at a Wolf den and Wolf rendezvous site, 2.5 km and 0.5 km respectively, from each deer's previous locations.
