Why Did Wolf Cross Road w/Orange Highway Cone?

From Idaho Fish & Game Web site: “While (Fish and Game wolf biologist Michael) Lucid and his crew of helpers were trying to capture and collar a wolf in the Timberline pack (Selway Bitterroot Wilderness) recently, they saw a wolf run across the road carrying a blaze orange highway cone. They did not speculate why the wolf might have been carrying the cone.”
