Unimportant change to [USA] Alaska - Aleutian Islands background

Unimportant change to [USA] Alaska - Aleutian Islands background

Like I said, it isn't important but as someone in Alaska I found it kinda funny that our background is primarily based on one of about 4 places in the entire state mostly without a wolf population (aside from a couple other island like Kodiak, where if wolves ever did swim out there they saw the 1500 lb bears and swam the hell back.)
You know, instead of any of the dozens of beautiful national parks that are known for their unique populations of wolves not that I'm bitter or anything. Seriously though, I'm not too bitter. More backgrounds will be made over time and not even every state/province got one so we're good.

There are only wolves on Unimak Island, I believe it's the biggest and most forested island closest to the mainland in the Aleutian Island chain. Most of the other islands are basically only seasonal habitats to marine life and seabirds, other critters were introduced by people and wolves weren't one of them (because, you know, when they were leaving animals on remote islands to be hunted by fisherman adding wolves wasn't brilliant...)

I notice the names of other backgrounds range from very specific to very vague, but perhaps the Alaska one should be renamed to Unimak Island specifically?
