In some areas , new shrub plots need to fenced while the plants are young to deter browsing by big game . Insects attracted to the plants while flowering can be particularly important to chicks which require a high protein and fat diet for their rapid growth . Vegetation may also be managed to reduce or eliminate noxious or invasive plants . With the involvement of many cooperators , much more can be accomplished than any one group acting alone . Cooperators in the past two years have included the U.S. Forest Service , U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service , Bureau of Land Management , Natural Resource Conservation Service , Soil and Water Conservation Districts , Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board , Oregon Hunters ’ Association , National Wild Turkey Federation , Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation , and several private landowners . In Oregon , it is represented by the Goose Lake Sucker , Catostomus occidentalis lacusanserinus , which is endemic to the Goose Lake basin . To obtain more information on wolves , ask questions or to offer suggestions , please contact the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife using the information listed at the bottom of this Web page . Fire , mechanical , or even chemical means may be used to control invasive or noxious plants . The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife hosted 15 town hall meetings throughout the state in late 2002 and early 2003 to hear the thoughts , concerns and comments of Oregonians about wolves entering the state . The seven-member Commission , which is the rule-making body for ODFW , heard from experts in 2002 about the potential for wolves to become established in Oregon . The theory of plate tectonics gives new meaning and new impetus to areas of investigation such as mineralogy , petrology , volcanology , stratigraphy , economic geology and paleontology . The fence in foreground protected young plants from being browsed . Wolves are by nature extremely territorial and guard their territory from other canids , including coyotes and domestic dogs . Wolves rarely show aggression towards people .
