Action Alert: Wolves targeted & sterilized to boost elk hunt

Defenders of Wildlife Canada

The province of Alberta and the University of Alberta have begun a research project that will kill all pups and subordinate animals and sterilize the surviving alpha pair in a number of wolf packs (see article below and research summary, attached).

This follows at least two years of the local fish and game association offering "bounties" for wolves killed in the same region to boost elk numbers (see attached news article).

We have not received responses from the University or the Province regarding wolf numbers, elk trends, causal analysis or other factors.

If you are so inclined, we are confident that the principals involved (see list at end of this message) are eager to hear from you. Read more »
