Re: Sign petition to help three young wolves at a Belgium zoo

I was the trainer of the 3 young wolves, among other animals, but the wolves are very special to me. To my horror, these 3 youngsters are kept in a cage no larger than 30m2 (by Belgian law they have to have at least 1200m2) . Well that is what the petition states,so if this is true even if they don...

Re: Another wolf computer game.

Re: 'Research hunts' weighed for wolves

There are no such things as "research hunts", in my opinion. Researching wild animals (for example, collaring wolves with radio transmitters) is the non-lethal and humane way inspecting the animal's life and habits without causing physical harm and stress. I think this is just an excuse for hunting...

F&G: Wolves NOT causing most elk losses

Wolves have long been blamed for elk deaths in Idaho. But research is showing the predators have gotten a bum rap. In its August newsletter, the Idaho Department of Fish and Game summarized recent elk studies and found only a minority of elk populations are declining and wolves are culprits in few....

Re: Druid wolf pack likely to fade away

I agree. I was thinking about that when I first heard she was seen again,finding a pack or loner to pair up and secure a territory with when pups are around would be a hard task only made harder by her sickness.

Re: We're a never-kill-wolf province, public says

Now I wouldn't call aerial gunning humane,effective maybe but not humane...but it's probably the quickest out of some other choices.

Re: Druid wolf pack likely to fade away

Druid female has been seen,along with other yellowstone news! During my Spring Break in Yellowstone National Park (April 10-18, 2010), I managed to see at least one wolf every day, but it wasn’t as easy as it used to be. There are really only 17 wolves that might typically be visible in the Northern...

Wolves make few unnecessary elk kills, study says

A multiyear U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service study of wolves in the winter in the Gros Ventre drainage shows they rarely kill more than they need to eat and do not prey on moose in excess, researchers say. The as-yet-unpublished study also shows that most elk tend to stay on feedgrounds in the Gros V...
