How often would a pack of 10 wolves make a substantial kill of a full grown moose to live?
Once per week? Once every 10 days? Once evey 2 weeks?
I have been led to believe that wolves at times will kill just to kill. True or false I do not know. Do the park wardens kill wolves in jasper and Banff? You would think they would.
I was told by a pilot that years back he was paid to chase sheep from Alberta into B.C. and back again.
