This study examines predation by wolves and cougars in and near Glacier National Park from 1992 through 1996. A comparison of prey selection among wolves, cougars, and humans to ascertain the effects of wolf recolonization and multiple predators on prey and each other is discussed. The main focus of this study is to determine the species, sex, age, and condition of prey selected by each.
