A Wolf Goes Fishing

A Wolf Goes Fishing, a Wolf Elective Adventure

The Wolf Cub Scout handbook says, “People have been fishing long before they started farming. Today, most people fish as a hobby or just for fun, and not for survival. In this Adventure, you will get ready to learn the basics of fishing where you live and join your family, den, or pack on a fishing trip.

Do wolves fish in the wild? Yes, they do. In Alaska, wolves fish for salmon, and in Minnesota, they fish for freshwater fish in creeks. Let’s learn about the different types of water in which to fish and how to catch them.“
