From Mountain Journal:
To understand how thorny a problem wolf management is in Montana, just look at the clock. The August 21 state Fish and Wildlife Commission meeting started at 8:30 a.m. and ticked a dozen items off its agenda before noon. The debate over 2025-26 wolf regulations took another seven hours.
From NC Newsline:
Two members of North Carolina’s congressional delegation introduced a bipartisan resolution on Monday to back red wolf repopulation and recovery efforts.

From The Grand Junction Daily Sentinel:
Wildlife officials have ended their effort to kill a livestock-attacking gray wolf in Rio Blanco County, unsure about whether they succeeded in the effort.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife said in a news release Tuesday that it concluded an “active removal period” aimed at lethally removing an uncollared wolf determined to be responsible for attacks on livestock in the county in late July and August.
From Southern Environmental Law Center:
Full tree canopies and blooming goldenrod. Shifting bird sightings with migrating flocks. The thrum of cicadas, late sunsets, and lightning bugs. The final remnants of summer are all around — and in Eastern North Carolina they include the welcome yips and yaps of growing red wolf pups.
On August 8, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) shared the good news that the world’s only wild population of red wolves has grown by as many as 16 pups. These births are a critical step forward for a population that numbered as few as 7 known wolves in the wild just five years ago.

From Northern Kentucky Tribune:
As darkness settled in at the end of an evening event at the Land Between the Lakes’ Woodlands Nature Station, the naturalists on hand worked to get the captive coyotes howling, in hopes of persuading their larger cousins to do the same.
As the coyotes started to yip on one side of the gathering, the red wolves on the other side did as well. We were all treated to an amazing chorus, one that I will never forget, in part because red wolves are among the most endangered species on the planet. Their howl reminds us that they still exist, and maybe we should figure out how to restore them.
