Monitoring wolf populations using howling points combined with sign survey transects
No full textWolves respond to simulated howling, especially during the mating and breeding seasons. Simulated howling points are, therefore, commonly used by many wolf researchers around the world to estimate pack numbers in a given area. A large amount of information is available on various pack breeding
areas in Asturias, the only region in north-western Spain where the Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus, Cabrera 1907) is not classed as a game species. Wolf research began there in the early 1980s. We present the results of the latest study on population status, conducted between July and November, 2001. Using sampling transects to detect wolf scat and scratch marks and designated howling and observation points, twenty one (21) wolf packs were
definitely located, with two others considered “likely”. Nineteen (19) packs were detected using howling points (n=314). The results of this study show that simulated howling points and sampling transects are reliable and
inexpensive way of detecting wolf packs
Seasonality and Recurrence of Depredation and Wolf Control in Western North America
No full textDue primarily to wolf (Canis lupus) predation on livestock (depredation), some livestock
producers and other interest groups oppose wolf conservation, which is an important objective for
large sectors of the public. Predicting depredation occurrence is difficult, yet necessary to prevent
it. Better prediction of wolf depredation also would facilitate application of sound depredation
management actions. In this paper we analyze temporal trends in wolf depredation occurrence
and wolf control, which is employed as a depredation management action. We gathered data from
wolf depredation investigations for Alberta, Canada, from 1982ñ1996 and for Idaho, Montana,
and Wyoming, USA, from 1987ñ2003. We showed that wolf attacks occurred with a seasonal
pattern, reflecting the seasonality of livestock calving, grazing practices, and seasonal variation in
energetic requirements of wolf packs. Seasonal wolf attacks were auto-correlated with lags of one
year, indicating annual recurrence. Cross-correlation analyses indicated that limited wolf control
was rapidly employed as a short-term response to depredation, and was not designed to decrease
wolf depredation at a regional scale or in the long-term. We therefore discovered a recurring
seasonalñannual pattern for wolf depredation and wolf control in western North America.
Ranchers and managers could use our data for focusing investment of resources to prevent wolf
depredation increases during high-depredation seasons
Bruno Wolf Family Collection
No full textBruno Wolf and his son, Karl Wolf, descendants of Blas de la Garza, father of the Nueces County's first settler, his namesake, and a captain who explored much of South Texas and Northern Mexico, have preserved and guarded Spanish colonial documents for almost 300 years. The collection includes official correspondence to Spain from Mexico, then known as New Spain. Original land grants, research supporting their authenticity, letters that document events of the day, a genealogical accounting of the Garza Falcon family tree and 18th century surveys of areas in what is now Northern Mexico and South Texas. Also included in the collection are legal land dispute transcripts, marriage and birth certificates and many photographs of the Wolf Ranch near Laredo. Bruno Wolf Jr. served in the army during Worth War II; photographs document his time in France
Commercial hunt and predator control? The case of Rennie lake area wolf kill
No full textA controversial wolf hunt in 1998 killed 633 wolves in the 13,000 km2 Rennie Lake area of the Northwest
Territories, a region straddling the tundra-boreal forest transition, and another 125 wolves from adjacent areas.
Although wolves have been hunted there for decades, the controversy focused on the number of wolves killed and
use of snowmobiles in the hunt. From available records, annual kill has averaged 258 wolves ±59.7 (±1 SE, n=10
years). The territorial government considered the 1998 hunt sustainable given the reproductive potential of wolves
and also noted that a higher than average number of caribou brought a corresponding increase in wolves following them. We re-examined the Rennie Lake area wolf hunt and evaluated radio-tracking and genetic data for wolves to
determine the potential influence of the hunt on overall wolf survival and implications of reduced wolf predation on
caribou. Our analysis suggests that the 1998 hunt targeted an estimated 2700 wolves from an area of at least 200,000
km2 in which an unusually high number of migratory caribou had congregated. Removal of about 750 wolves in
1998 could have released an estimated 15,000 caribou from predation that year, or 3% of the estimated half million
caribou in the area then. If predation is additive mortality for caribou, then our data challenges the hypothesis that
migratory caribou are lightly influenced by wolf predation. Accordingly, the commercial Rennie Lake wolf hunt may
not only be a commercial hunt for fur, but also an indirect form of predator control
