Needing Wolves in Yellowstone

Why do I need a wolf in Yellowstone Park? Is there no wolf in Yellowstone Park? There is a short history around 1930, the last wolf was discovered by a hired hunter in Yellowstone district. This is the last time I saw a gray wolf in the land of Yellowstone. From 1918 to 1935, government scouts recorded 35 mountain lions, 2,968 coyotes and 114 wolves (Phillips 1996). Since wolves have not been seen since 1930, these are sums, and 114 wolves were eliminated in the early 1920s.

The wolf of Yellowstone has a long history. By the end of the 1920's almost all American wolves were killed mainly by ranchers protecting their livestock. Yellowstone National Park started reintroducing wolves in 1995 as the population drastically decreased. That is one of the few wolves in America. As of December 2014, the park had 11 wolves and 104 wolves. Wolves are protected outside the park outside the park, but the law to manage wolf management differs from state to state. Food supply within the park also caused wolves' population fluctuations. The wolf's lifespan is 7 - 8 years.

Since the reintroduction of the wolves to the Yellowstone National Park, the wolf has expanded to occupy the entire North Rockies habitat, but there is no wolf in South Rocky in western Colorado State. This area is the last missing place in the Rocky Mountain Protected Area. Restoring the wolves in Colorado will reconnect the North American wolf from "the backbone of the continent" from "Alaska to Mexico" - throughout the Rocky Mountains. The reintroduction of wolves' creatures and the value of protection becomes important

Just after the Hayden Geological Survey at the Yellowstone Park in 1871, the hunting of the Yellowstone wolf began. In the following 50 years the population has drastically decreased and in the 1970s scientific investigations did not show evidence of wolves in the Yellowstone. As there are no major predators, the number of elk populations exploded in the national park and the vegetation was damaged by overgrazing. Experts are beginning to recognize the important role the wolves play in the park, and biologists are beginning to consider ways to reintroduce seeds
