Wolves once existed throughout New York but removal began shortly after European settlement. Currently no established wolf populations live in this state. However, due to the close proximity of viable wolf populations in Canada, wolves may return to this state in the future. Private groups have promoted and studied the possibility of reintroducing wolves to the Adirondack State Park in northern New York, but the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has no official plans to undertake a reintroduction project here.
