In Alberta too brewster, a biologist at a caribou conservation meeting explained it to me like this " if you lived in an area where they closed the grocery store eventually you'd move to an area with food (a grocery store). That was when the moose tag numbers were way up in some areas. She also explained how they would reclaim slash lines and cutlines by strategically laying logs/trees on them. I suggested that would keep off roaders out but I didn't think it would deter the wolves. All I said was wolves will always be on the landscape, caribou I'm not so sure. I left the meeting thinking that there was a lot of pressure on bios from the then NDP Government.
