"Wolves Teach Experts About Global Warming"
Posted by Andrew Morriss  ·  31 May 2005  ·  

A USA Today headline.

Unfortunately for those of us hoping that lupine science would improve the average quality of work on the issue, it turns out that it is the study of the wolves that is intended to reveal global warming's impacts. As usual, data in any direction supports the conclusion that we are all doomed. On Isle Royale on Lake Superior, wolves eat more moose because of global warming - and it's bad. But on Canada's Ellesmere Island, wolves are eating less and so have moved elsewhere - and it's bad.
