For WDF&Wolves
« on: March 05, 2017, 01:06:31 PM »
States must be able to manage this horrible experiment quickly before we lose our herds. Idaho Fish & Game Lolo Study in 2011 does confirm, "at the present time and at current elk population status, wolf-caused mortality is the major factor limiting calf recruitment and cow elk survival" >90% of known-cause deaths of radio-marked cow elk were due to predation, of which 76% (37 of 49) were caused by wolves, During this same time period >88% of known- cause deaths of radio-marked older calves were due to predation, of which 73% (22 of 30) were caused by wolves. Of all calf and cow predator-related deaths, wolves were the primary cause for 75% (IDFG, unpublished data; Pauley and Zager 2011)
