For millennia, wolves played a critical role in the Oregon environment, but then due to mankind, they were gone.

I looked down at my hands, shielded in red mittens, and flexed my fingers. They were badly blistered from frostnip, and I winced. It was early March and, despite the azure sky above, it was a bone-chilling -50°C.

When you visit Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, you are in qʷayac̓iik (wolf) territory. Wolves are a natural and important part of this coastal ecosystem.
To better understand local wolf populations, and how people and wolves can safely coexist, Parks Canada undertook a six year Wild About Wolves research project. While the study is now complete, ongoing monitoring and education continue to help support safe, respectful coexistence between people and wolves.

Just south of Highway 70, about 40 miles northwest of Reno, Nev., sits Sierra Valley, a nearly 600-square-mile alpine basin.
