Native American advocacy group Protect the Wolves is calling for a “no wolf hunting” buffer outside Yellowstone National Park.

Yellowstone National Park has released a series of reports on wolf, bird, and fish populations in the Park.

In terms of star power, no carnivore in Yellowstone National Park tops either the grizzly bear or the gray wolf.

The assumption from the folks at the Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks Department is that the state's wolf population needs "management" -- but a recent court decision holding them protected under the Endangered Species Act makes it impossible.
