“The #MexicanGrayWolf recovery program has been sabotaged by the over-reporting of wolf predation on livestock,” said Greta Anderson, deputy director of Western Watersheds Project. “It has resulted in wolves being killed by the government and their packs disbanded, and it has resulted in the taxpayers footing the bill for improbable reimbursement claims for losses totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars.”

True, true, all true.

TKO.
Arizona Game and Fish Department is thwarting #MexicanGrayWolf recovery with their insistence on an arbitrary northern boundary for the species. Time to follow the science and drop the restrictions on wildlife movement and recovery.

Wolves naturally wander. If they're thriving in northern Arizona, why stop them?

Opinion: We need more Mexican gray wolves to offset the genetic crisis in the wild population. Bans on where they can wander aren't helping.

Get ready for a dose of adorable!

We've all had those mornings, and it seems Mexican gray wolf pup Kazoo is no exception! He's so deep in his puppy dreams that it takes the combined efforts of his entire pack to wake him up!

Beyond being cute, this a glimpse into the close-knit and affectionate nature of wolf families. Every interaction, even a collective wake-up call, is a testament to the strong bonds they share.

One of the most beloved matriarchs at the Wolf Conservation Center turns 15 today - join us in wishing Mexican gray wolf Rosa a happy birthday! 🎉

We've had the privilege of witnessing Rosa grow from a newborn pup into the intelligent, loving, and fierce wolf that she is today. Her tenacity inspires us, and we're so thankful that her children were raised by this powerful female - they will be better wolves because of her.

We love you, Rosa!

Federal employees killed an endangered Mexican gray wolf.

Affectionately named Rusty by a middle school student in a nationwide contest, the wolf was killed on April 12, leaving behind his likely pregnant mate and several yearling pups.

Get this... The Service quietly authorized the killing on March 29, 2023 – on the day marking the 25th anniversary of Mexican wolves’ return to the wild.

Yes, #MexicanGrayWolf is the most #endangered sub species of wolves in the world. They lack #GeneticDiversity & it’s critical for them to be able to pass freely between the US & Mexico. Trump & his #BorderWall put the species into even greater peril. One wolf was observed pacing at the wall for 23 miles, unable to continue south.
