Figure 1 . Wolf pack distribution in Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming and the recovery area boundaries. 



Large symbols represent established packs. Small symbols indicate newly-formed packs or 

 packs whose status is unknown at the present time. (Source: USFWS et al. 2001 and 

 USFWSunpubl. data as of September 2001) 4 



Figure 2. Wolf pack distribution by name and land ownership pattern in Montana. Approximate wolf 

 pack territories are designated with horizontal lines. Gray tones represent public lands and 

 white indicates private lands. (Source: USFWS et al. 2001 and USFWS unpubl. data as of

LIST OF TABLES 



Table 1 . The spectrum of management activities to manage and conserve wolves in Montana. The 

 adaptive management model calls for selection of different management strategies as the 

 number of wolf packs changes from less than 1 5 to 1 5 or greater. The different management 

 settings (Public Lands and Mixed Land Ownerships) call for different strategics, depending 

 on landownership patterns, social factors, land use patterns, biological constraints, and the 

 physical attributes of the environment. Some management strategies may apply across all 

 numbers of wolf packs or management settings, as indicated by the right arrows 31
