This wolf was spotted strolling along the Airport Bike Path Tuesday morning around 7:30 a.m. The Petersburg Police Department responded non-lethally soon after, firing buckshot into the muskeg nearby in an attempt to drive it away. The wolf eventually made its way near Raven's Roost Trail and after a couple more nearby shots it ran into the woods toward Raven's Roost. The Alaska Department of Fish & Game, Alaska Wildlife Troopers, and the PPD are keeping an eye out for further sightings.
