Wolf Attack in Idaho

[Jethro]

Here is a quote from your study.
"wolf predation in winter has been highly selective; calves represent about 43% of wolf-killed elk, cows 36 %, and bulls 21 %"

Now I know math pretty well but I still think 43% is greater than 36%.

I could be wrong though.

For all these predators, elk calves are a major dietary component. Thus, in a very real sense, the abundance and survival of cow elk, through their annual production of young, support major links in the Yellowstone food web and will determine the trajectory of the elk population in the future.
