Reintroduce Wolves to 6 New Areas

There are few wolves in some areas and (unlike other places) it will take a long time for them to come back to these regions so they should be introduced to keep the ecosystem healthy and to have more genetic diversity.

Wolves should be introduced in these 6 locations (locations map: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=202315110416250883606.0004b4a09105a83751b6b&msa=0)  because from these places (and their current range) they can easily repopulate most of their old range.

Great Plains wolves will be caught from the wild in places far from the release sites and other types of wolves will be from captivity. Then they should be soft-released into each area. If the wolves leave the area they SHOULDN'T be brought back unless they go far into city/farmland.

Without wolves, ungulates will stay in the same place and eat until there's no more and move to the next place and coyotes eat too many small animals and overpopulate until most of them die, and cause prey to overpopulate. Ungulate herds will get weaker and there won't be enough carcasses for other animals to eat, and without new wolves in some areas they will become inbred because there are only a few mostly populations in the US and some wolves on the Canadian border.
