Grizzly bears, black bears, wolves, coyotes, cougars/ mountain lions,bobcats, wolverines, lynx, foxes, fishers and martens are the suite of carnivores that originally inhabited North America after the Pleistocene extinctions. This site invites research, commentary, point/counterpoint on that suite of native animals (predator and prey) that inhabited The Americas circa 1500-at the initial point of European exploration and subsequent colonization. Landscape ecology, journal accounts of explorers and frontiersmen, genetic evaluations of museum animals, peer reviewed 20th and 21st century research on various aspects of our "Wild America" as well as subjective commentary from expert and layman alike. All of the above being revealed and discussed with the underlying goal of one day seeing our Continent rewilded.....Where big enough swaths of open space exist with connective corridors to other large forest, meadow, mountain, valley, prairie, desert and chaparral wildlands.....Thereby enabling all of our historic fauna, including man, to live in a sustainable and healthy environment. - Blogger Rick

A lone Wolf is no match for a full grown Moose whether on land or water......It takes a pack of Wolves to down such a prey creature......................Nonetheless, a fantastic "clash of the titans" in the northern Ontario Woods plays out on the 6 minute video below between a lone Wolf and a Moose.............While they furiously go at it, both combatants live to fight another day................Even with a Wolf pack, 7 out of 10 times the adult Moose, Elk, Deer, Caribou and Bison prey animals manage to escape death-----Such is the eon old plan of predator and prey---Natures design has both of them enduring on the planet if both have enough natural habitat and are not overly persecuted by the SUPER PREDATOR-MAN

Epic fight between 

moose and wolf 

captured by drone

 October 13, 2017 ; Jeff LagerquistCTVNews.ca


A Canadian YouTuber captured an epic
 wolf versus moose battle deep in the
Ontario wilderness in a video that has
surged in popularity online.
Dan Nystedt was using a drone to shoot
 a moose majestically surveying its
 surroundings, standing in the shallow
 water near the shore of a pristine lake.
A wolf abruptly emerges from the tree
line, interrupting Nystedt’s tranquil vision
of natural beauty.
The fight that ensues has been viewed
more than 1.7 million times online since
it was posted on Monday. Popular
 podcaster and natural predator
enthusiast Joe Rogan retweeted
the video to his 3.6 million strong
Twitter audience on Tuesday. The
 tweet has been liked more than 750
 times and retweeted by more than
200 people.
The wolf was the clear aggressor,
wading into the water towards the moose.
The moose uses its size advantage
throughout the six minutes of footage,
 keeping the wolf at a distance with its
 powerful hooves. The pair charge and
 retreat several times before the wolf
makes its move, sinking its teeth deep
into the moose’s massive leg.
The moose eventually drags the wolf
 into deeper water as the fight intensifies,
circling and kicking at its persistent
opponent. The aggressive canine
doggedly holds on.
The pair separate after the moose
submerges into the water and marches
 away, turning periodically as the wolf
 swims in pursuit.
The wolf makes a last effort, bounding
 through the water towards the moose,
but to no avail.
