High number of wolf deaths recorded in 2018 in New Mexico
From the El Defensor Chieftain:
With the release of the 2018 report from the U.S. Department of Fish and Wildlife, New Mexico cattlegrowers are concerned about the effectiveness of the Mexican gray wolf reintroduction program. The report showed that the total number of wolves that died in 2018 was 17, five in November alone. That’s the highest number of wolf fatalities in a single year since the program began in 1998.
