As I have noted, winter continues to linger in the Northwoods here in Minnesota, specifically the Greenwood Creek Boreal Forest. Here is another version of Sunday night at the Movies … the Moose Video is from my TrailCam, but the Mink was an “in person” event from a few days ago. I enjoyed watching this small, but fierce predator hunt for food.

I remember as a boy being fascinated while reading Jack London’s, Call of the Wild and White Fang (published 1906). These two books were often marketed within one single hardbound book, and that is in fact how I was introduced to the Northwoods. Now years later, after just turning 70 years old I like to think a timber wolf which I have named “White Fang” lives in the Greenwood Creek Forest and Bog. Actually, I know that a white wolf lives in Greenwood! Ever since last summer I have been catching glimpses of the wolf via my trailcams. White Fang decided to put in an appearance at the Canada Lynx’s Scent Bush (see recent post with video).

If you have read the book, White Fang, you may remember the wolves battle a “she lynx”, A Canada Lynx female protecting her young. If not, perhaps you would like to read Jack London’s Book? If is on 99 cents for the Kindle version via Amazon.

In closing … White Fang, one of the Greenwood Lynx and the Jack London 1906 Cover Art.

Earlier this winter (2026) I discovered multiple Canada Lynx were using a specific “scent branch” to mark territory. In early March I placed five trail cams pointed at “the branch”. The Lynx came through! One Lynx even roars for the camera (40 seconds into video)! See near the end of this post the still image of “the roar” which was captured by one of my cameras.

The location is the Nature Conservancy Sand Lake / Seven Beavers Wilderness Preserve in the Superior National Forest, or what I like to call the Greenwood Creek Boreal Forest and Bog (Northeastern Minnesota). Stay tuned to my blog … in a few days I will post my images and videos of White Fang! Yup, I the same cameras even captured stills and videos of a white timber wolf! However, it takes me time to work through four weeks of trailcam content to prepare same for this blog. The wolf is coming!

Finally, this begs the question how I find locations for my trailcams? It is not “dumb luck”. A person needs to learn how to “read the forest”. Over the course of time I learn good habitat for wildlife and then early in the winter with the first snows I track both Snowshoe Hares and Canada Lynx. These rabbits are the primary prey for Lynx. I slowly move my cameras around to different locations in the forests based upon what I observe.

More trailcam still images …

The Roar!

When I saw this traialcam image, I immediately knew “a roar” was in progress. Although my videos captured the roar with the Lynx “off camera”, its challenge is impressive. The settings for my trailcams is as follows: 1) If motion detected, with zero delay take one still image 2) After camera recharges (moments), start a second video with sound activated. 3) Repeat as long as motion is detected.

My cameras are still in place! Winter continues in the North Woods with a new winter storm expected tomorrow. If you have read this far, I hope you understood the reference to the classic Jack London novel and wolf, White Fang! The book is worth reading. It was originally published in 1906. As I noted … pics and a video of this timber wolf is coming soon.
