		291 documented elk is all when in the winter of 2002-2003 there were a pack of wolves by pinedale wyoming that run 450 elk off of a feed ground in the middle of february. and they only killed 291 in the park i find that a bit hard to believe. This winter there were a pack of wolves traveling from day to day between two feed grounds in wyoming and eventually the 2 of them were killed but they are still on the feed ground. Also in the same winter i am not sure of the number but there is another feed ground around big piney wyoming where the herd was run out by the wolves and is documented in that herd that a few elk were killed others were partially eaten some had only the nose ate off some had to be put down by fish and game because the manager on the feed ground reported that the wolves would run the elk take one down and when it was almost dead spot others and go after them. The man stated that is was like fish in a lake that the wolves seem to be on a feeding frenzy but it was more like a killing frenzy. Now i find it hard to buy that the wolves only killed 291 elk in yellowstone. As far as the elk dieing in wyoming i have no prof and that is just my theroy. If i can find the articles on the wolves and the elk feed grounds i will post them.
