	The Science Behind Algonquin's Animals - Research Projects - Eastern Wolf
		For example, in Algonquin, a pack of wolves may occupy a territory that can be up to 500 square kilometres in size, although the average is closer to 150 square kilometres.
		The idea that the wolf "population" in Algonquin (as a whole) was at risk of extinction because of human-caused mortality outside the Park assumed that wolves from western Algonquin were leaving the Park during winter, and being killed, at a similar rate as observed in the eastern half of the Park during the 1990s.
		Findings of considerable immigration into the Park based on genetic studies and the common emigration of collared wolves from the Park suggest that it is inappropriate to consider wolves in the Park (moreover a particular section of the Park) as a discrete biological population.

	June Project 2001

		The subsequent documented increase in the Algonquin moose herd is felt to have happened thanks to a resulting decline in the occurrence of a parasitic brainworm, which is carried by deer, but is often fatal to moose.
		To increase the Algonquin deer herd would require the provision of considerably more early succession forest through increased logging within Algonquin Park, in addition to providing an increased hemlock component, particularly in the “traditional” deer wintering areas, which are no longer inhabited by deer.
