A new era of wolf management demands better data and a more inclusive process

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2022
Hunting and trapping of gray wolves (Canis lupus) has increased dramatically in the “lower 48” states of the United States. We assess the data used to justify the intense hunting pressure on wolves, and find an absence of accessible biological data.
