EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to the early 1900s, showcases a Northern Timber Wolf standing proudly in Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan. The exact year is unknown, but it is believed to be between 1905 and 1915. The wolf, an Eastern Canadian subspecies of the gray wolf, is known for its distinctive fur and piercing yellow eyes. In this image, the wolf bares its teeth and snarls, showcasing its fierce and wild nature. The background of the photograph reveals a group of people, likely locals, gathered around the scene, observing the magnificent creature. The image was captured using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, a common photographic technique during that era. The photograph is part of the Detroit Publishing Company's extensive collection, now housed in the Library of Congress. The Timber Wolf was once a common sight in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and northern Lower Peninsula. However, due to hunting and habitat loss, their numbers dwindled, and they were hunted to near extinction by the early 1900s. Today, the Timber Wolf population in Michigan has rebounded, and they are once again a protected species. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the rich natural heritage of Michigan and the United States during the early 1900s. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural resources and the wildlife that call them home.
