Our twitter-less Camilla Wikenros did it again! See our latest publication on moose harvest and how it is related to predation, forestry and land productivity. Interesting differences between the bordering countries Sweden and Norway🫎🐺🐻🇸🇪🇳🇴https://t.co/piCIz4AqNF

Wolf 907F has now reached 11.2 years old. Once they hit the elder years, we start celebrating decimals😄🐺💙

The most remote wolf pack in the lower 48 is Wyoming’s Hawk’s Rest pack. On a trip to Yellowstone’s Thorofare last summer, we were fortunate to find the pack’s pups using old fashioned wildlife tracking. Read about it in the Spring 2023 edition of International Wolf magazine!

Yesterday, our team was able to capture and collar - in one case, recollar - two gray wolves in North Park

Male wolf 2101, collared two years ago, was able to be fitted with a new collar. Wolf 2301, another male presumed to be one of 2101’s pups, was also fitted with a collar

Check out our new article about breeding displacement in male gray wolves in Yellowstone! Displacement events typically fall into three categories: 1. Expulsion from the pack, 2. Mortality, or

packs in Montana, Wyoming, and Yellowstone National Park.

Displacement events show the benefits of female mate choice and male-male competition, and how stochastic (randomly occurring) events can shape an ecosystem. The article was recently published in PLOS ONE, and is open

Yellowstone Wolf Project: Hunting and trapping outside park boundaries impacted 7 of 8 wolf packs living primarily inside Yellowstone National Park. Impacts ranged from loss of a single non-breeding pack member to complete pack dissolution.

1/ F&W Commissioner Pat Tabor – who last year pushed to end wolf hunting quotas in areas adjacent to Yellowstone & Glacier National Parks – announced yesterday that FWP’s proposed quota of 10 wolves in the area adjacent to northern Yellowstone should be reduced to 6 wolves.

[Dan MacNulty @DanMacnulty]

6/ Byorth's amended quota of 4 wolves is identical to the quota that was in place in WMUs 313/316 from 2015-2019 but it's higher than the most recent quota of 2 wolves in 2020.

[Dan MacNulty @DanMacnulty]

7/ If FWP assesses that Byorth’s “amendment to reduce the wolf quota in proposed WMU 313 from 10 to 4 will not biologically influence the trajectory of the wolf population in Montana”, then a reduction from 10 to 2 (or 0) probably also lacks such influence.
