BANFF, ALTA. - Residents of this Rocky Mountain resort town are being told to stick to lighted streets at night to avoid being stalked by wolves and cougars. Joggers are cautioned not to run alone at dawn or dusk, when cougars hunt, and parents are advised to drive their children at night rather than let them walk even a few blocks. Children should not go into the woods without adult supervision.
