Wolves, Bison and the Dynamics Related to the Peace-Athabasca Delta in Canada's Wood Buffalo National Park (Circumpolar Research Series

by Ludwig N. Carbyn, S. M. Oosenbrug, D. W. Anions

Chronicles historical events and changes in Wood Buffalo National Park and the Peace-Athabasca Delta. The study was an important landmark in the long history of bison investigations, and came at a time when the future of the bison was again the subject of intense debate. This is the only in-depth study of a predator-prey system that once dominated the mid-section of the continent. The complexity of the modern management dilemma and the importance of thorough ecological investigations are clear from this account.
