I suspect wolves. How has the wolf population done over the same period of Moose decline?

I also read that the bears are death on newborn Moose.

Predators, disease, over hunting, poaching or any combination of these could cause the decline.......................

This

Here is Wisconsin the wolf population is way higher than the DNR claims. They are out there and they have to eat. I too would like to see the numbers comparing moose and wolf numbers over the period in question.

If Minnesota is having a very cold winter with deep, drifting snow the the wolves will dine well on moose. On crusted wind-blown snow a wolf can glide over the snow while the moose has to plow through it. Wolves always dine best in winter.
