Wolf' killed in N.B. may be 1st in a century
DNA tests will confirm whether animal shot on Acadian Peninsula is a wolf

Hunter Jacques Mallet shot a wolf-like animal weighing nearly 90 pounds on the Acadian Peninsula last week.

Provincial wildlife officials said they’ve never seen anything like it. 
The last time a wolf was reported killed in the province was in 1876.
 

They were believed to have been hunted to extinction after the province starting offering a bounty in 1858 of 15 shillings for every wolf killed.

The provincial Natural Resources Department is waiting for DNA results to determine whether the animal is a wolf, a coyote or a mixture of the two.

Whatever the verdict — wolf or coyote — Lanteigne says there's no question it could easily take down a deer.  "Big teeth and claws," he said.

On our travels throughout the heartland we've visited small farms, big farms, and really big farms. But there are some that, in size anyway, simply defy classification.

"Outotec's most significant impact on sustainability occurs indirectly through our customers' operations. With eco-efficient solutions, it is possible to reduce the environmental impact of the industry, at the same time increasing welfare.  The annual emissions avoided by the metallurgical industry through use of five Outotec technologies amounted to 4.8 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalency in 2011. I am very proud that as much as 87 percent of our order intake for 2011 was categorized as Environmental Goods and Services under the OECD classification. I am also pleased that in 2011 we progressed well in many other areas of our sustainability agenda. We intend to further improve our performance and reporting and thus demonstrate our commitment to good governance, responsible business practices and transparency", says Outotec CEO Pertti Korhonen.

The report is available at www.outotec.com/sustainability in English.
