Isle Royale Moose-Wolves Winter Study

I find the winter study of Isle Royale on moose and wolves to be of great interest. They are in their 51st year of this annual study to get information of these 2 amazing animals and how they survive the harsh winter conditions surrounded by Lake Superior. The moose are the main prey for the wolves and this is a graphic detailed study of what they do. Isle Royale is a National Park that is closed during the winter months. It is considered the state of Michigan but is actually closer to Minnesota and Canada. They also count the number of moose and wolves from a plane. Last year there were about 650 moose and 24 wolves made up of 4 packs. There used to be a lot more moose in years past and there is a big concern of their survival as they are very heat sensitive.
