Gustavus, Alaska, United States |
Biologists are investigating a surprising connection between two animals that aren’t exactly well loved in parts of Southeast. Gustavus locals suspect wolves are picking off deer at a popular hunting spot on an island near the mainland.
Sea otters eat clams, mussels, sea urchins and crab.
