Environmental Impact Statement – Isle Royale Wolves
Wolves selected for introduction would be captured using available tools ranging from helicopter net–gunning, modified padded foot–traps (ie. leg hold traps), darting from a helicopter or modified snares with appropriate stops.
The Wolves of Isle Royale: Genetic Rescue or Sacrificial Lamb
Obviously an isolated and small population of wolves is a bottleneck leading to extinction due to lack of genetic diversity.

One cannot help but speculate that the logging industry swayed this decision.
Respect Science: Keep Wolves Protected
The wolf, a highly social animal is in peril. Hunted down relentlessly, the wolf mourns the loss of family members viciously and unethically trapped, snared, and murdered in droves. He must run for his life daily, year after endless year because man"kind" will not be bothered by the small concessions it would take to oversee harmonious coexistence.
