Wolves doing wolf things

Science article about wolves decimating a deer population only to learn to hunt otters afterwards. Interesting creatures.

Wow. Very interesting if not surprising. I did a fishing trip in Icy Strait based upon recommendations from rokslide 6 or so years ago and definitely enjoyed watching the sea otters play as we were fishing.

Would not of thought sea otters to be on the wolfs menu. Interesting

Interesting. So now the question becomes; what do the bunny huggers love more? The cunning wolf or sweet little sea otter?

We’d eat them as well if hungry.

Good, hope they kill a bunch more of those otters. Otters have decimated crab and clam populations in Alaska because they're basically unchecked.
