I was at the caribou recovery open house in Edmonton, asked many questions, got many answers, some made sense, others not so much. Regarding the moose hunter numbers it was suggested that if you remove the grocery store from a neighborhood people would move eventually  , personally I think the wolf will just eat more caribou.
I left thinking wolves will always be on our landscape, caribou I'm not so sure.

There are wolves in elk island park already but for the most part they probably leave the bison alone because there is easier chewing on other things.
