From PBS North Carolina:
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Red Wolf Recovery Program reports that a new litter of wolf pups has been born to what is known as the Milltail family pack on the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge in eastern North Carolina.
From My Kolkata:
“The pictures suggest a male and a female wolf. Wolves have been captured on cameras in Purulia before. We believe that there is a stable population of Indian wolves in Purulia,” said Asitava Chatterjee, the divisional forest officer of Kangsabati South forest division.
From Washington Wildlife First:
Eleven conservation groups petitioned the Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission yesterday to adopt rules requiring the state to meet certain standards before it uses taxpayer money to kill state endangered wolves.
From WISBusiness:
Wisconsin’s Green Fire (WGF), a nonpartisan independent nonprofit, reviewed the history and science behind the 350 goal in a newly published Conservation Bulletin report, “The 350 Wolf Goal in Wisconsin: An Assessment by Wisconsin’s Green Fire on Setting Population Goals for the State’s Gray Wolf Population.” The lead contributors on this WGF report include some of the original authors of the WDNR’s 1999 plan, such as wildlife biologist and WGF wildlife work group co-chair Adrian Wydeven.
From Out There Colorado:
A key element and required component of the state’s wolf reintroduction plan is to manage and minimize wolf-livestock conflicts and depredation incidents. According to the Colorado Wolf Restoration and Management Plan that was finalized in May, livestock losses are anticipated as a result of reintroduction, but could be prevented with proactive conflict management techniques.
From Outdoor Life:
Wolves and beavers occupy many of the same habitats in the North Woods, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the apex predators occasionally hunt and kill the large rodents. But according to researchers there, it’s rare to witness this—and even rarer to catch it on video. Which is why researchers with the Voyageurs Wolf Project were so excited to share the recent footage they captured inside Minnesota’s Voyageurs National Park.
From Independent Record:
A Helena judge has ruled that hunting wolves using thermal imaging technology was not explicitly allowed by a 2021 law that expanded when and how the animals can be legally killed on private land.
From The Squamish Chief:
Despite their record in popular culture, according to a recent survey, seven in 10 Canadians say they have a “very positive” view of the iconic predators.
From National Parks Traveler:
There are about 16 packs and 66 wolves in and around the park based on winter 2021-22 counts, and so far this year three packs have had litters. Four packs are being followed thanks to GPS collars. However, things are very dynamic with the wolf population in and around Voyageurs.
From The Daily Yonder:
California’s program — originally launched in February 2022 by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) — took an extra step last month, offering ranchers reimbursements for indirect impacts of the predators’ presence. These impacts include wolf-induced stress that can result in reduced weight or breeding problems — no other payback program is so comprehensive.
The International Wolf Center uses science-based education to teach and inspire the world about wolves, their ecology, and the wolf-human relationship.
