Two years ago, the latch of a metal crate clicked, sending a wolf running back into the Colorado wilderness for the first time since the animals were eradicated from the state in the 1940s. The lone wolf was soon joined by others, bringing the total to 15 new predators relocated from Oregon to the rugged peaks and valleys of the Rocky Mountain state. The release in Grand and Summit counties was the first step in a major conservation initiative to establish a resident wolf population, bringing wolves back to their historical range from northern Canada to the southwest.

Ranchers repeatedly stress they are not advocating extermination of the wolves, but workable management solutions.
“We’re trying to be conservationists,” says Luke Morgan, Lightning Bolt Cattle Co. general manager. “Wolves are here to stay. We’ve got to have some tools to make it more holistic for people, wolves and the rest of the animals.” Morgan manages 2,500 mother cows on multiple locations in Oregon and Washington utilizing both public and private lands. He says the split listing of wolves in Oregon is frustrating: “A line down the middle … federally listed on one side and not on the other … makes zero sense.”

As Montana adopts increasingly aggressive measures to shrink its wolf population, a conservation group on Tuesday announced plans to sue federal wildlife managers over their refusal to issue a first-of-its-kind national recovery plan for gray wolves under the Endangered Species Act (ESA).
Calling the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (FWS) decision an “unlawful” policy reversal that undermines the long-term recovery of wolves, the Center for Biological Diversity on Dec. 2 filed the 60-day notice of its intent to sue FWS, per statutory requirements of the ESA. The Center for Biological Diversity intends to file its formal lawsuit in early February.

UNION & WALLOWA COUNTIES – The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife has released information on investigated wolf depredations for November through December 1st, 2025.

The study is part of a collaborative effort to understand social perspectives in wolf conservation between Europe and India. Wolves in the state seem to be staring at extinction due to several factors, including the not-so-friendly attitudes of present-day shepherds, whose livestock are often lifted by the predators.
Hubballi: Younger shepherds no longer consider wolves their ‘guardian gods’ and consider any lifting of livestock as a loss and threat to livelihood, says a recent study, indicating a generational shift in conservation.

A training led by the Colorado Department of Agriculture is scheduled Dec. 8 in Lewis-Arriola to provide education and resources for preventing wolf attacks on livestock. The event, from 5-7 p.m. at the Lewis-Arriola Community Center, comes amid ongoing debate over wolf reintroduction, particularly in rural Western Slope communities such as Montezuma County.
The event will include an update on Colorado’s wolf reintroduction program and offer resources to prevent or reduce wolf-livestock conflicts, according to a flyer.

LUCKNOW, India; TOKYO, Japan––“Forest rangers in India have deployed drones to track wolves after nine people, mostly children, were killed by the animals in recent weeks, officials said Sunday,” reported both CBS and Agence France-Presse on December 1, 2025.
The CBS and Agence France-Presse reports went on to describe the deaths of a 10-month-old girl, “who was snatched by a wolf in Bahraich district of northern Uttar Pradesh state on Saturday while she was sleeping beside her mother,” and the death of a five-year-old boy who “a day earlier, was snatched in plain sight of his mother from outside their home.”

Researchers looked at the location of wolves on Isle Royale relative to the location of known active beaver lodges. In the absence of large predators, the beaver population boomed but has fallen drastically since the translocation of wolves onto the island. As moose grow stronger during summer and fall, wolves appear to shift their attention to beavers.
The International Wolf Center uses science-based education to teach and inspire the world about wolves, their ecology, and the wolf-human relationship.
