An Experimental Translocation of the Eastern Timber Wolf

"An Experimental Translocation of the Eastern Timber Wolf" by Thomas F. Weise is a scientific report from the late 20th century, documenting an attempt to bring eastern timber wolves back to Michigan. The report tells about a joint project between state workers, colleges, and conservationists. It explains how four wolves were moved from Minnesota to Michigan at first and seemed to do well, the report quickly goes into the problems they faced. These problems included their movements, new relationships, and, sadly, deaths caused by people. The publication highlights important lessons for future wildlife projects, showing how crucial it is to understand both nature and people when trying to conserve species.
