From Dakota News Now:
The red wolf is one of the most endangered animal species.
It’s estimated there are only about two dozen red wolves surviving in the wild right now.
The conservation team at the Great Plains Zoo is putting in a lot of work to save the species from going extinct.
The red wolves at the Great Plains Zoo are part of what’s called the Red Wolf Species Survival Plan. It aims to breed pairs with the greatest possible genetic diversity, with the goal of bolstering the wild population.
