Title
An Assessment of Potential Habitat for Eastern Timber Wolves in the Northeastern United States and Connectivity with Occupied Habitat in Southeastern Canada
Author(s)
Daniel Harrison and Theodore Chapin
Published
1997
Abstract
This working paper attempts to answer questions about the feasibility of wolf recovery, potential and dispersal habitat, and prey. Specifically, the authors attempt to quantify and map the extent, distribution, and connectivity of habitat in the northeastern U.S. that is in forested land cover, and below thresholds of 0.70 km roads/km2 and 4 humans/km2. To provide insight into the potential for natural reestablishment of wolves via emigration from extant populations, they also map potential dispersal corridors between wolf populations in southeastern Canada and potential habitat in the northeastern U.S.
