A Red Wolf Conservation Win in Durham [North Carolina]
From PBS North Carolina:
In May, Durham’s Museum of Life and Science marked a major conservation milestone when seven-year-old female red wolf Martha welcomed a litter of three male pups. A thorough examination by the museum’s Animal Care Team and veterinary staff determined that Martha and her pups are doing well.
Martha and breeding partner Oka were identified as a valuable match to maintain genetic diversity in the red wolf population in the summer of 2023. Martha (born 2018) and Oka (born 2014) arrived at the museum in October 2024.
