YREKA, Calif. – Siskiyou County (the County) and the Public Works Department has recently installed wolf awareness signs along select county roads in areas where gray wolf activity has been documented.
The signs, which resemble traditional wildlife crossing signs, are intended to increase public awareness and help inform residents, visitors, outdoor recreationists, and motorists that wolves may be present in the surrounding area.

For years, ranchers have butted heads with conservationists and the federal government – claiming that the endangered Mexican gray wolf is a serious threat to their local economies and public safety.
Federal data obtained by KUNM, however, tells a different story.

A group that opposes Colorado’s wolf reintroduction efforts is now arguing that Proposition 114, the ballot initiative that established the state’s wolf reintroduction program, didn’t actually pass among voters in 2020.
The group, Colorado Conservation Alliance, is asking the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service — which is already reviewing the reintroduction program — to reconsider the implementation agreement it has with Colorado Parks and Wildlife while these claims are reviewed.

A lone wolf just did something that sounds like it belongs in a wildlife documentary, not a densely populated European country.
GPS points analyzed by the KORA Foundation indicate a male wolf known as M637 crossed Lake Lucerne by swimming about 0.93 miles (1.5 kilometers) on Feb. 13, 2026, through 41°F (5°C) water, with a location ping appearing right in the middle of the lake.

Over the past few decades, the golden jackal has been pushing into parts of Europe where it had never been recorded before. An international study, published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, outlines the reasons why.
According to our researchers from the Institute of Vertebrate Biology of the CAS, who contributed to the study, the expansion is driven by a combination of climate change, landscape modification, and the long-term decline of large predators, especially wolves.

One of the most celebrated claims about Yellowstone’s wolves is facing a major challenge. Scientists say the study behind the famous trophic cascade story relied on flawed methods that overstated the ecological impact of wolf recovery. Their reanalysis found no evidence for a dramatic, park-wide surge in willow growth. Instead, the effects appear smaller and vary from place to place.

The fall of the Iron Curtain in 1989 brought many changes to Europe. One of the more unexpected was that it allowed the big carnivores of Eastern Europe to begin expanding their range westward, where for centuries they had been practically unknown.
Few large mammals, people included, had been permitted to cross from east to west before the borders reopened. From the guard towers, they shot the bears for fun. Today, the European wolf is undergoing a remarkable resurgence.
From NotesFromPoland.com:
A newly released video shows for the first time a pack of wolves attacking a herd of bison in Poland, which is home to the world’s largest population of European bison as well as a growing number of wolves.
The footage, caught by a camera trap, shows seven wolves targeting a group of 11 bison. The predators focus in particular on a newborn calf, which they manage to bite and begin to drag away before being charged and driven off by two adult bison cows.
The International Wolf Center uses science-based education to teach and inspire the world about wolves, their ecology, and the wolf-human relationship.
