: How many elk are killed meach year by wolves?
Thanks for your question, JJ. The number of elk that are killed each year by wolves varies (especially as the wolf population is growing). I don't have the numbers yet for 2001, but in 2000, park staff detected 281 elk killed by wolves (this was probably aobut 87% of the total number killed).
