Wolves have had a devastating effect on all game populations here, I was hunting a favored mule deer area I like and everyday I found at least 1 kill site, not too many bones left, just hair of moose and Mule deer. We would see several 4 point bucks everyday before the wolves took over, after that your lucky to see any good bucks around at all.
Cougars, if you only kill the Toms then you really haven't done anything to help the problem as the Toms take out other cougars that are competition to them. Female Cougars and female Bears need to be taken out if you want to help out ungulates.
