摘要: The recent colonization of the northwestern United States by an endangered wolf (Canis lupus) population has raised concerns among hunters regarding competition for prey. Data on prey selection may dispel misperceptions and thereby decrease human-caused mortalities that would affect recovery. We assessed extent to which early stage affected comparing our results with those from established populations. examined 243 killed colonizing wolves in Glacier National Park area Montana adjacent British Columbia during winters 1985-91 compared characteristics these ungulates
