I heard it was working great an the caribou had stopped declining. There is a cost for all this but long term spin off should be good. The wolf population is exploding all over the province and the ungulates are decreasing. Not many trapper specifically no how to target wolves. Many own trap lines just to have a cabin on crown land. There is always a cost for progress. If your going to have industry and we will and need to it creates allot of connectivity and you need predator management to keep things in balance. Wolves don't self regulate their population they increase until the starve or die from internal strife. Areas that that has happened in are void of almost any game for years and years. Good on the government for taking on such a dirty tasks in today's mindset.
