Kenton Joel Carnegie (11 February 1983 – 8 November 2005) was a 22-year-old Canadian geological engineering student from Ontario on a work term from the University of Waterloo who died in a wild animal attack while he was walking near Wollaston Lake.
Waste dumping attracted black bears and wolves to the area.
According to a trucker who said he met Carnegie in the cafeteria a few days before his death, he had passed around close-range photographs of large wolf pups that had approached him during walks in nearby woods, and been warned by the trucker that such encounters were extremely dangerous.
A bush pilot said he warned Carnegie about an incident in which adult wolves had menaced others walking outside the camp, but Carnegie's family said he would not have taken risks if warned.
After reviewing evidence, which included what were reported as wolf tracks left around the body, the finding of a coroner's inquest was that Carnegie had been killed by wolves.
If true, this would make his death the first verified case of a fatal wild wolf attack in North America at that time and only the second ever.
