A female gray wolf, released in Colorado in January after being translocated from British Columbia, has made significant movements across the state, covering more than 1,230 miles since translocation — an extraordinary display of the species’ natural roaming behavior.
“This single wolf’s movement traveled nearly the entire southern line of watersheds on our map,” said CPW Wolf Monitoring and Data Coordinator Brenna Cassidy.

Recent reports have raised concerns over the alarming decline of the wolf population in Dalarna, Sweden, where the numbers have reportedly halved in recent years. Wildlife experts and conservationists are increasingly pointing to suspected poaching activities as a possible explanation for this troubling trend.
In Dalarna, the wolf population has faced significant threats, and the mysterious vanishings have sparked an urgent need for investigation. Authorities are probing the circumstances surrounding these disappearances, as the region’s ecological balance heavily relies on the presence of these apex predators.

In the icy wilderness areas of High Asia, snow leopards glide like shadows across the snows as the haunting howls of Himalayan wolves echo across the crags.
In Nepal, high mountain dwellers have forged a delicate balance with these two elusive Himalayan predators, a timeless coexistence of human livelihoods with the wild. Snow leopards inhabit steep slopes at elevations from 3,000 to 5,500m. Wolves patrol more open stretches across grasslands and mountain meadows.

In the second half of 2025, the ABQ BioPark plans to open a new behind-the-scenes care facility to support one of our region’s most iconic and endangered animals: the Mexican gray wolf. The Mexican Wolf Conservation Facility will be a 4.5 acre area located on ABQ BioPark Botanic Garden property along the bosque.

After at least seven livestock animals were killed by a wolf or wolves in central New Mexico over the last year, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service killed an endangered Mexican gray wolf last week.
The agency is allowed to intentionally kill the endangered wolves within the experimental population area, which straddles Arizona and New Mexico. Wildlife advocates are critical of the decision, calling it infuriating and counterproductive, while one Catron County rancher thinks it was the right decision made too late.

Michigan’s gray wolves are back in the political spotlight. A new bill in Congress—H.R. 845, the Pet and Livestock Protection Act of 2025—would remove federal protections for gray wolves across the lower 48 states. It wouldn’t stop there: the bill also aims to block any court from reviewing that decision, essentially locking it in for good.
If it passes, the fate of gray wolves in Michigan would shift squarely into the hands of the state.

The ongoing debate surrounding wolf conservation and hunting in Brandenburg has reached a critical juncture, as farmers, hunters, and landowners advocate for the culling of wolves. In contrast, conservation organizations are voicing strong opposition to these demands, claiming that the regional agricultural minister, Hanka Mittelstädt, is advancing policies without proper public discourse.
The International Wolf Center uses science-based education to teach and inspire the world about wolves, their ecology, and the wolf-human relationship.
