Inquiry

Now that you have considered the issue, you will determine your position on what should be done.


Consider these questions as you complete your inquiry:

  • Do the caribou have to be protected?

  • Should the wolves be killed?

  • How long did this debate go on?

  • Is it still going on?

  • Look again at the dates on the newspaper articles, websites, and timeline. Why is solving this problem taking so long?

  • In what ways is democracy evident in this process?
