Yellowstone mystery- 75 wolves missing?
From Ralph Maugham's fantastic wildlife web site:
"Wolf watching has grown quite a bit more challenging lately, with only about 118 wolves in Yellowstone National Park now, compared with 171 a year ago. If my calculations are right, and you subtract the 22 pups born this year from 118, that means that only 96 of those 171 are still present, which means that 75 wolves are missing. This staggering loss is appalling! It really makes me wonder--what happened to them all? "
