The animals were shot Monday from the air by state wildlife employees, who said they matched descriptions of the wolves seen where Candice Berner, 32, was killed while jogging last week.
Berner died March 8 along a road about a mile outside Chignik Lake on the Alaska Peninsula.
Microbiologists studied the brains of the wolves and found no indication of rabies, a virus that often makes animals aggressive and more likely to bite.
The Department of Fish and Game is testing the wolf carcasses for other diseases, including distemper virus.
Department officials announced Wednesday that they were calling off the hunt for additional wolves at Chignik Lake. They said they would stay in close contact with residents and may conduct a second search in early April.
