Black wolf in the scenic fall colors of northern Minnesota #Video

Just a few days ago we got our first daytime video of a black wolf! And what neat footage with the fall colors and a neat looking wolf! A picturesque Northwoods autumn scene!

Black wolves are quite rare in our area. We have studied 10-11 wolf packs each year for the past 3 years and none have had a black pack member.
We have had photos—no videos though— of black wolves in the winter during this period but these have all been lone wolves that are just passing by.

And this wolf is almost certainly a lone wolf as well. This video was taken in the Windsong territory and the 3 pack members of the Windsong Pack are all the typical grey coloration.
