When the ice age ended, the glaciers slowly retreated until they reached their current extent limited to the polar regions and alpine mountain climates. The land covered by ice had also been depressed by the weight of the massive glaciers and consequently began to rebound in the centuries following the retreat of the ice sheets. These once frozen lands also turned into large boreal forests with rich ecosystems.

In the 1800s, westward expansion brought settlers and their livestock into direct contact with native predator and prey species. Much of the wolves’ prey base was destroyed as agriculture flourished. With the prey base removed, wolves began to prey on domestic stock, which resulted in humans eliminating wolves from most of their historical range. Predator control, including poisoning, was practiced here in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Other predators such as bears, cougars, and coyotes were also killed to protect livestock and “more desirable” wildlife species, such as deer and elk.
