Mexican gray wolf population grows for 9th year in a row [Arizona and New Mexico]
From KNAU.org:
The Southwestern population of endangered wild Mexican gray wolves has grown for the ninth consecutive year.
That is according to the most recent annual count by state and federal wildlife managers that showed at least 286 of the animals roaming eastern Arizona and western New Mexico.
Officials say it is the longest stretch of population growth since recovery of the species began almost three decades ago.
