        Ed Bangs tried to                        reintroduce wolves                          to some national parks in the U.S. He wanted to


        keep the wolves  from becoming extinct                                           . First, Ed              published a report                          that dealt with


        possible problems with reintroducing the wolves. For example, they  might leave the parks                                                                                        .


        and kill ranchers’ livestock. Then, he found wolves to put into Wyoming and Idaho. He used



        soft release for some wolves and                                            hard release                        for other wolves. In 2002, there


        were 560 wolves. Now, elk and deer herds are not too big, and  aspen and willow trees                                                                                      are


        growing again.
