Description
Summary:Cover: During winter in the interior of Yellowstone National Park most elk migrate from deep snow while many bison do not, existing near thermal areas and on wind‐blown ridges. Wolves still attempt to kill these bison and often spend hours making a kill. Wolf‐bison systems used to dominate in North America prior to European settlement but now only Yellowstone and Wood Buffalo National Parks have intact wolf‐bison systems. See pp. 1105‐1116.
