2,800+ wolves killed, $10M spent, yet 15 caribou herds remain at risk: Is British Columbia targeting wrong?
British Columbia’s ongoing wolf cull initiative aims to support the restoration of caribou populations. Experts contend that habitat destruction, rather than wolf predation, is the primary issue affecting these animals. The provincial government is considering prolonging this contentious ten-year wolf cull for an additional five years, drawing backlash for failing to address habitat degradation. Stakeholder consultations are underway to finalize the decision on extending this program.
