State officials eye next phase for recovery as Mexican wolf population grows
From KNAU.org:
Major changes could be in store for the decades-long project to reintroduce Mexican gray wolves in the Southwest. The latest count of the endangered animals showed at least 319 in the wild, approaching the goals listed in the species’ recovery plan.
The minimum number of wild Mexican wolves grew by 33 last year and 2025 was the 10th consecutive year the population has increased.
