Notice to Raglan Community Area residents: A resident in the Raglan Rd. W/Stevenson Rd. N area had an incident Sunday February 13, 2022 with a wolf charging at his dog.
He has lived in the area for almost three decades and assured me he knows the difference between coyotes, coywolves and wolves.
He indicated he has had at least 10 encounters with coyotes, over 60 coyote sightings and hundreds of times had heard coyotes making noise at night.
But he is 'extremely stressed' by this incident. The wolf appeared at the back of on his property around 1 p.m. last Sunday. He started shouting at the wolf when it was about 50 feet away to protect his dog. He continued his loud shouting as the wolf approached as if to attack his dog. It came as close as 10 feet away until fortunately it reversed.
Hopefully no one else encounters this animal behaving in this way. If they do, please call 911 and notify the City's municipal by-law officers 905-436-3311.
