Wildlife experts looks for new ways to count wolves in Alaska
From NPR:
There’s a common problem in wildlife management – to know how many animals you can hunt, you need to know how many animals you have. You’d think that problem might be easier to solve in an enclosed environment like an island, but on Prince of Wales Island in Alaska, getting an accurate count of wolves has been a huge challenge. This week, wolf trapping season will start amidst concerns that the population is getting dangerously low and a new effort to get a better count. Jack Darrell from KRBD reports.
