[QUOTE="shaughn, post: 1521585"] Of wolves brought down from Canada, 3 packs came from Jasper National Park....just west of Edmonton...Take a hunter from Idaho and Montana..drug them...drop them off in Jasper and they would feel right at home..elk moose brown and black bear mule deer all animals within the scientific averages of Montana/Idaho, allowing for differences due to climate and terrain...other group came from Fort ST. John BC just slightly NW of Edmonton and just a little north of Jasper...these are not arctic wolves and they came from a self sustaining breeding population. Now if you don't have a self sustaining breeding population,such was the case in Montana and Idaho, then your wolves will get smaller and dispersal wolves will always be the young ...BUT...dens were being found in the 70's. Glacier National park and in the 80's and 90's the "HUGE" Canadian wolves were beginning to establish foot holds, enough of a population to get on the radar of those who knew where to look. The 1995 reintroduction just sped things up...it was going to happen...naturally would have just took longer and 20-40 yrs down the road. I am not trying to down play anything...these are the same wolf species (Northern Rocky Mountain sub species, though there is debate amongst Biologists on the issue within the Grey Wolves as a whole) of Grey/Timber wolves that historically inhabited the region.
