Re: Wolves
No. I get it. My question was if the naturally occuring packs in Glacier had been left alone and recolonized the bitteroots gradually, would you still call for the extirmination? I understand that the subspecies introduced into southern Montana was not the same native subspecies.

Re: Wolves
I support most reintroductions as long as they are geneticALly the same. I don't support reintroductions that don't meet that criteria.

And Montana has a healthy Wolverine population - so the limited hunting season is not an issue.
