Index of Subjects Quoting Blake Maybank <bmaybank@gmail.com>: > Time to consider reintroducing wolves to Nova Scotia. * two questions: how hybridized with Coyotes do you suppose the descendents of a small introduced population would be after a few generations? ...and how ecologically different from Eastern Wolves are the current Coyote populations? We know from the Russian domestication of Foxes that Canids are as quickly modified by selection as the breeding of Domestic Dogs suggests - so I'd wonder if Wolves can be introduced into eastern Canada, since the current Coyote populations, with their infusion of Eastern Wolf genes, are presumably in equilibrium with the available prey. fred. ------------------------------------------------------------ Frederick W.
