"Built on the foundations of conservation and science, shaped by industry and politics, wolf reintroduction is a huge and messy paradox, a noble intention to save the wolf soaked in the wolf’s own blood."

"Pluie’s irregular path, something between a squashed circle and a lumpy triangle, encompassed a 40,000-square-mile territory not indicated on any map because it ignored political and geographic boundaries [...] Because places stay put but animals don’t."

“They are capturing wolves at the absolute worst time of year,” [Dr. Paul Paquet] said. “It’s breeding season. This is [the] most stressful time for wolves. All interactions are intensified among wolves, particularly among females.” #WolfReintroduction

New and exciting behaviour discovered: Ethiopian #wolves feed on the sweet nectar of a local flower, picking up pollen on their snouts as they do so – which may make them the first carnivores discovered to act as pollinators.

Did you know that coat colour in #wolves reflects immunity to canine distemper virus?

Research suggests that wolves with black fur have some protection against this disease and this may be influencing the mating behaviour of wolves.
