- Wolves_and_moose_on_Isle_Royale abstract "Isle Royale, the principal island of Isle Royale National Park in Michigan in the United States, is home to a predator-prey relationship between wolves (Canis lupus) and moose (Alces alces) that is unlike any other in the world. Because Isle Royale is a small, isolated island, the two species are able to be studied with virtually no factor of human interaction, as the island is protected by its national park status, and there is little migration of animals into and out of the island. The unique single predator-single prey relationship, where wolves are the only predator of moose, and moose are almost exclusively the only prey for wolves, allows for precise research on predator-prey relationships, and of the fluctuation of the two populations.The relationship between wolves and moose on Isle Royale has been studied and researched for an unprecedented amount of time, which provides a rich background of research that aids in the better understanding of the two species and their interaction. The ongoing study, begun in 1958, is the longest study of either wolves or moose.Isle Royale National Park is made up of about 400 islands, and is in the northwest portion of Lake Superior. It is about 50 miles (80 km) from Michigan's shore, and 12 miles (19 km) from the Canadian shore. The main island is about 45 miles (72 km) long, and nine miles (14 km) wide at the widest point, with an area of 205 square miles (530 km²). There are no roads, and no motorized vehicles are allowed on the island. Because there are no roads, nor any residential area, virtually all of the land on the island is wilderness. The remoteness of Isle Royale leads to it having fewer visitors in one year than Great Smoky Mountains National Park has in just one day. The park is closed from September to May during which the wolf-moose study personnel are the only humans resident on the island.".
