Adjective

Minnesota is the only one of the contiguous forty-eight states where there is still sizable wolf population, and where this predator remains the archenemy of cattle and sheep.

Guys, In above sentence WOLF is being used as adjective, therefore, can THIS PREDATOR refer back to wolf?

Thank you
