Wolf Reintroduction in Europe and North America

Wolf reintroduction restores ecosystem balance more effectively than any lethal management alternative. Ecologists document that wolves have reduced elk populations by 30% in Yellowstone, allowing willow regrowth, but ranchers losing 1,200 cattle annually to predation demand population control. The 30% predation increase on livestock outpaced expectations, exacerbating tensions across Europe and North America.
