Minnesota\, with approximately 2\,600 wolves\, is home to the largest and only continuous population of wolves in the lower 48 states. It is a center for wolf research. Countries around the world\, as well as other states\, look to Minnesota as an example of how wolves and humans can co-exist in relative harmony. Students will work on two wolf projects during the course: one to determine pack numbers\, territories\, and behavior through tracking surveys near Ely\, MN. The second\, to determine wolf pack size\, territory\, and the impacts of prey species on the historic Jonvick Deer Yard along the North Shore of Lake Superior (Lutsen\, MN).
