Abstract: This report contains the detailed results of ten studies designed to answer four questions posed in 1988 by the Senate-House Interior Appropriation Conference Committee. (1) Would wolves be controlled inside or outside of Yellowstone? (2) How might reintroduced populations of wolves affect the prey base in Yellowstone and big game hunting in areas surrounding the park? (3) Would reintroduced populations of wolves harm or benefit grizzly bears in and near the park? (4) How would wolf management zones be delineated? Congress provided the Naional Park Service and the US Fish and Wildlife Service with $200,000 to answer these and related questions.
