Officials say two wolves have been killed and another rescued from harm in the past two weeks in Banff National Park.
Last Tuesday, a wolf was spotted wandering on the TransCanada Highway five kilometres east of Castle Junction.
Human Wildlife Conflict specialist Steve Michel says officials had to close the highway for 20 minutes while they lured the animal back to safety.
Michel tells The Calgary Herald two other wolves were hit and killed the week before.
He says they are looking into more safety measures to protect the wildlife.
