Bluegrass Wildlife: The howl of restoration — the sweet sound of the endangered red wolf
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.
