18. I would have liked to see some information about the elk herds

...how they have been doing, for instance, and whether a good balance between predator and prey populations is the goal.

I know one side would like to exterminate all wolves, on principle, but I'd like to think that the other side of the argument isn't - don't touch or manage wolf populations, and don't consider the impacts on elk or other animal populations. I'd like to see an argument for balance, and that would take looking at some numbers and some history. I haven't seen that.
