Give me your views of wolf introduction in Wyoming ==
Larger Wolves?
I live close to an area where wolves were reintroduced. I have heard opponents of reintroduction claim that the introduced wolves were much larger than the wolves that originally inhabited the area. The majority of the information I have gleaned from the internet indicates that this is not true. Does anyone have a creditable source on this issue? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.239.253.2 (talk) 23:10, 12 March 2007 (UTC).
According to Wikipedia, the reintroduced wolves were McKenzie Valley wolves, which might be somewhat larger than the (probably extinct) original subspecies. Wilhelm Ritter 03:08, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Wolves Versus Livestock
I am highly involved in agriculture and I wanted to provide anyone interested with a great resource regarding wolf reintroduction. If you go to pbs.org and search Wolves in Paradise, there is an extrememly interesting documented research project about wolves interaction with cattle. It gives research backed proof that wolves are detremental to ranching operations, but that they are also needed in a balanced ecosystem. Its a facinating film, you should watch it.

Other Areas
I've heard the idea mentioned in books about Olympic National Park, but I don't have details. Is there anywhere else in the US it's been/is being considered? Wilhelm Ritter 03:08, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
