Parasite data and stable isotope ratios from wolves in southeastern Manitoba

These data were used to examine the relationship between parasite abundance, host diet, and host body condition in gray wolves from southeastern Manitoba. This study, published in the Journal of Animal Ecology, found wolves that consumed a higher proportion of beaver and caribou, estimated using sta...
