They live in packs in the forest. ]]> 2021-03-25 16:27:43 UTC https://padlet.com/carissa_kell/iibmb934zwahmzaz/wish/1353792341 carissa_kell https://padlet.com/carissa_kell/iibmb934zwahmzaz/wish/1353848757 In 1995 the Wolves population was at it's lowest, then throught 1996-1998 the population grew but then in 1999 the population dropped even more. Then from 2000 to 2021 has gone up and down each year. But in 2012 the population dropped down to number in 1998.]]> 2021-03-25 16:37:48 UTC https://padlet.com/carissa_kell/iibmb934zwahmzaz/wish/1353848757 carissa_kell https://padlet.com/carissa_kell/iibmb934zwahmzaz/wish/1353883408 Because the wolves have been hunted throughout the years other animals have been affected. The Elk and Deer population has gone up which has affected the plants in the forests. Rabbit populations have gone up as well meaning that there has been more fur everywhere and more vegetables have been taken from framers.]]> 2021-03-25 16:43:53 UTC https://padlet.com/carissa_kell/iibmb934zwahmzaz/wish/1353883408 carissa_kell https://padlet.com/carissa_kell/iibmb934zwahmzaz/wish/1353918166 Some solutions have been made to help the Gray Wolves. But not all of them have worked.  So some solutions include putting them on the endangered list, but the governments has taken them of and put them back on multiple times. A solution would be to hunt the 1 month out of the whole year so that way these animals can repopulate and their species can survive.]]> 2021-03-25 16:50:04 UTC https://padlet.com/carissa_kell/iibmb934zwahmzaz/wish/1353918166 carissa_kell https://padlet.com/carissa_kell/iibmb934zwahmzaz/wish/1353960592 Helping these animals survive will help the environment because these animals help control things in the forest. If we remove them then it will be horrible for the environment.
