A massive pack of 25 timberwolves hunting bison on the Arctic circle in northern Canada. In mid-winter in Wood Buffalo National Park temperatures hover around -40C. The wolf pack, led by the alpha female, travel single-file through the deep snow to save energy. The size of the pack is a sign of how rich their prey base is during winter when the bison are more restricted by poor feeding and deep snow. The wolf packs in this National Park are the only wolves in the world that specialise in hunting bison ten times their size. They have grown to be the largest and most powerful wolves on earth

Post by: boneaddict on November 24, 2011, 08:11:11 AM: Interesting. So was it the Arctic circle or Lolo pass? The Lolo pass thing was a regular news article I thought.

I think that's how the South Park guys started out! $$$$$$$ :chuckle:

I read on another forum the other day, how Utah is releasing wolves in their area...Why don't these people understand?
Someone made a comment about how that may be, but their F&G wouldn't "let" the wolves into this certain area because of the muleys.....Really?? :bash:

Post by: JimmyHoffa on November 28, 2011, 11:49:19 AM: There's only one in that truck drawing, needs to be a pack. At least that's how I've heard it--how the 'starter pack' is coming to the Olympics.
