One summer the moose population on Island was unusually high, and park naturalists noticed signs of malnutrition among the  adults.  The wolf population  was  fairly  low,  near  20.  That  winter,  for  the  first  time  in  many  years,  a substantial  number of seemingly healthy adult moose as well as calves and crippled animals were killed and eaten by wolves. This description is part of a general situation in which the wolf and moose populations
