After several days of milling around their newly
opened pens, all 14 Yellowstone Park wolves are wild once more.
Most of the wolves remain in packs, but two young wolves are
traveling solo, according to park spokeswoman Marsha Karle. The
wolves have killed a buffalo and possibly an elk inside the park,
which Karle says is great news, since the wolves have probably
never seen bison before. The Park Service has tracked the wolves by
air and radio telemetry since March 21. Three wolves wandered about
seven miles outside the park into the Absaroka-Beartooth
Wilderness, but doubled back into Yellowstone a few days later. "We
don't know what they're going to do," says Karle. "We've never done
this before. But they're looking for their territories. All good
signs." Meanwhile, state and federal officials aren't getting along
as well as the wolves. The day before the wolves' release, Wyoming
Gov. Jim Geringer sent Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt a letter
blasting him for disregarding state concerns, and detailing
Wyoming's plan for dealing with wayward wolves. "Bruce Babbitt, in
his arrogance, had the audacity not to even call the governor to
tell him when the wolves would be released," said Jimmy Orr, a
spokesman for the governor. U.S. Fish and Wildlife biologist Ed
Bangs apologized for overlooking state concerns and promised to
cooperate with Wyoming wildlife wardens.
