- Desjarlais was jogging back to Key Lake's mining campsite when a lone wolf attacked him from a ditch on New Year's Eve 2004. Thankfully, his colleagues came to his aid when they spotted the incident from a shuttle bus that was taking them back to their campsite. The wolf subsequently fled into the wilderness. The colleagues took Desjarlais to a nearby medical facility which kept him until a helicopter ambulance airlifted him to Saskatoon's Royal University Hospital where he had an undergoing series of rabies treatment.
- After the wolf attack on Desjarlais, Canadian governmental authorities built an electric fence around Key Lake's landfill to prevent future predatory animal incidents. They also built an electric fence around Points North Landing's landfill after Kenton Carnegie's death. It was for the same reason as Key Lake's campsite.
- Ten months after to the assault on Desjarlais, four wolves (two gray-tans, one black, and one white) attacked a male twenty-two-year-old University of Waterloo student Kenton Carnegie in Points North Landing. He was hiking in the snow by himself on the western shore of Wollaston Lake, but did not have anybody from Points North Landing come to his aid when the wolf pack attacked him.
- Four years prior to the wolf assault on Desjarlais, a lone wolf attacked a twenty-three-year-old camper named Scott Langevin at Vargas Island Provincial Park in Clayoquot, British Columbia. A group of other campers rescued him by chasing the wolf away. Scott was subsequently transported to a hospital in Victoria where he had an attachment of fifty stitches on his scalp while injuries from his hands to his back had rabies treatment.
- Twelve years after the wolf assault on Desjarlais in Saskatchewan, a lone wolf attacked a twenty-six-year-old worker named Andrew Morgan in Canmore, Alberta after he departed from a bus. It stalked and eventually lunged at him. Andrew fled from the wolf, but it chased him through a trail. He fended the wolf with a tree branch until it released him. Andrew subsequently climbed over a barbed-wire fence and successfully returned to Holiday Inn. The next day, he went to a hospital to get a check over his body and reported the incident to conservation officers of Alberta Environment and Parks.
