There's plenty to look at in the heart of the B.C.'s Kootney region, but a family driving near Radium Hot Springs got an up close look at some special local wildlife on a recent trip.
According to the description accompanying the YouTube video:
"My family, my dad, and in-laws were driving around Radium Hot Springs. It was a hazy morning because of all the wildfires that have happening in the province. My husband then slowed down and saw a grey wolf beside the road. He alerted us, and because I am always fascinated with nature and wild animals we meet along our trips, I got my phone and started recording. I was sitting at the very back of the van when I saw him running beside the road and when I turned to look at the back that is when I noticed him chasing after the car. He was running so fast and he had his eyes only on us because there were other cars on the opposite direction. He chased us for a good couple of kilometers and an amazing experience. If only we had the time we would've tried to see how far he will follow us but we were on a time crunch as well. I was keen on reporting or calling parks Canada cause we were afraid that the wolf might get hit my another moving vehicle but there were no service in the area."
This isn't the first time a gray wolf has chased a vehicle in Canada. In 2013, a motorcyclist had a similar experience in the same area. It's unclear if this is the same wolf, but it sure looks extremely similar.
