In referance to Coranation Island-Deer were eliminated quickly by the wolf releases, and the vegetation recovered spectacularly from deer browsing. The wolves were soon starving as they were exceedingly successful eliminating deer. The wolves caught a few seals till these avoided hauling out on that island....and then the wolves starved to death.

I understand from your blog that you enjoy hunting Elk just for the fun of it. You describe the enjoyment as spiritual ! Who is to blame for the total elimination of many species and great reduction of precious animals on earth, mankind or wolves? Not many years ago large herds of animals existed while wolves roamed virtually everywhere. Man came along and brutally tried to eliminate wolves to total extinction.

The Wolves have killed all the Moose around Dubois , Wyo. The Elk are almost gone, Wolves are like a Cancer eating Wyomings Wildlife. These Wolves in this Vid are much smaller than what they brought from Canada to Kill in Yellowstone. These are theWolf- Coyote-Dog Hybrids that Ed Bang refused to use to Kill the Big Game of Wyo, Mont and Idaho. The Wolves in YSP are in huge packs that sweep thru the Wildlife like a hail storm. They would have Killed both of these Moose.

Do you have any scientific data to support your claims? You seldom see a predator totally eradicating the pray. It is often a self-regulating, fluctuating system. The pray learns to avoid to be killed and evolves to be stronger though the survival-of-the-fittest principle. Also, with the decline in prey it becomes more difficult for the predator to succeed. The system undergoes natural fluctuations. Nature is more diverse with the introduction of wolves.

@PeterVP01 I hunt Elk to fill the freezer. Deer and bear as well. I also fish, grow veggies, and tan hides. It's very spiritual. People are getting too domesticated, like cattle, and they're losing any connection to the earth. it's not a Disney movie, and meat doesn't come from a grocery store.

@petervp01 Also want to add that this video sucks. The music volume is way to high, and everything you say is weird and difficult to hear. Way too much time is spent on just the moose walking around at the beginning, and the part we want to see, wolves killing the moose, never happens. You are a weirdo and have dumb opinions.

[MrBmccready]

@PeterVP01 Don't really see how hunting elk for the enjoyment of it can be related to the eradication of wolves in most of the US. People killed off the wolf because it was competing with them for food, eating both livestock and wild game. It was seen as a pest. People who hunt for sport actually do a lot to preserve elk, as they know there will be none left to shoot if the elk are destroyed. More importantly, game preserves also ensure that more elk habitats are kept in tact.

[youallschallack]

too bad they have never been able to find the infamous Isle Royale turd burglar, some say it was starving wolves or rabid moose, I think it's some sick drunken Finlander. I wouldn't be surprised if he was from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan maybe from Negaunee, Ishpaming, or Marquette maybe even Blueberry street in Gwinn. The turd burglar has burgled homes while the people were home.....Remember Yoopers always flush when your done to prevent the infamous turd burglar.

It has been proven by research that top predators like wolves guarantee ecological balance and healthy environment. Wolves keep the population of browsers and grazers in check, thereby allowing flora to flourish. When wolves were extirpated from Yellowstone in 1930s, Elk population burst at seams that browsed Aspens and Willows away. That is why, wolves were reintroduced in the park.
