The Ministry of Natural Resources Dryden Office is asking local hunters
and trappers to help them with a research project on wolf genetics.
Officials want the public to drop off wolf skulls with the flesh
attached.
Biologists are trying to determine if the Provincial wolf population
is composed of Eastern Wolves, Gray Wolves or a hybrid of the two.
They are also looking at how changes in landscape and prey dynamics
affect the population.
The MNR says the skulls are usable even if they have gun shot wounds
and they also need to know the sex of the animal and the location it was
found.
