Reintroducing this big fella will be a lot trickier than the fisher. Fishers prey on small woodland creatures including skunks, and even porcupines. Gray Wolves can knock off the larger creatures like deer. Few will argue that the park is out of balance without the wolf, but many will disagree with any suggestion they be reintroduced.

Residents and livestock owners near the park may bristle at the thought of wolves roaming near their property. They are already dealing with bears and cougars. But supporters of the idea say wolves have been successfully reintroduced in other states and it may be time to welcome them back to Washington. Nobody has a plan to do that right now, but many groups openly support the idea. Watch this topic get both sides howling in the months and years ahead.
