From CincinnatiZoo.org:

CINCINNATI (April 9, 2025) – Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden has been instrumental in re-establishing a species that was considered extinct in the wild in the late 1970s. From assembling the annual management meeting to determine the best placement for Mexican gray wolves in human care to constructing a new habitat at the Zoo and a new breeding center at an off-site property, Cincinnati Zoo is all in on Mexican wolf conservation.

“This species was once considered extinct in the wild, and our curator of mammals, Kim Scott, has played a key role in their recovery. At one point in her career, she was responsible for nearly half of the Mexican wolves in existence,” said Cincinnati Zoo director Thane Maynard.
