not sure this belongs on this forum because, come on, how many of us actually bow hunt wolves? buttttt, anyways, I thought it was very, very interesting and amazing the distance this collared wolf traveled in 6 months http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2...+wired/index+(Wired:+Index+3+(Top+Stories+2))
Interesting... When you look at the map and actually look at the mileage scale it doesn't seem that amazing. I guess i would assume that if the pack wants to survive it has to keep moving and as you look at the map ... most of there treks are a little over 10 miles. Wolves are amazing animals with a fascinating lifestyle. I wish they would be a little gentler on the northern WI deer population lol :D
I kind of thought the same thing, but then I did a little more digging and the collar which is being used only takes a reading every 10-12 hours. So, while the map has point-to-point, as the bird flies lines, its nearly guaranteed that the wolves traveled even further than what was indicated on the map. Still amazing no matter how you look at it, though
