Description
Wolf portrait in digital mat. The presence of wolves have been involved with folklore for centuries. Gray wolves more often fail then succeed when attempting to attack elk and other large prey. Wolves overcome their limited hunting ability by targeting the young and the old older, and the physically wounded ones. These wapiti generally represent a small percentage of the total elk population. The majority of elk, including reproductively prime age cows face a minimal threat from wolves. That helps explain why elk interrupt their foraging only when wolves are an immediate threat. Elk continue to select for nutritionally-important but risky habitats despite the presence of wolves. On the side of the coin, increasing wolf predation rate, strong preference for elk calves, aging female elk, and strong female elk winter range fidelity explains how wolf predation likely contributed to a decline in population inside Yellowstone park and a skew in elk winter distribution towards areas outside the park. Complicating the case for a wolf-caused, is the role of other predators like bears and cougars,including humans that hunt elk and wolves outside Yellowstone National Park. Long as all remains properly controlled there will always be a adequate numbers of diverse animals in the park and surrounding areas.
