Over the last 10-15yrs the wolf population has steadily increased. Yes grizzly populations have increased but that has also caused the black bear population to decline.
We used to have tons of moose and elk in the upper elk valley. Over the last 5-8yrs the population has dropped drastically. Part of the reason the elk herd has declined is the 300 cow/calf tags per year for the last 10 years. Why the moose numbers have dropped.........predators!!!! There hasn't been a cow moose leh in over 25yrs.
