4th red wolf shot since NC loosened coyote hunting
November 20th, 2012In May we reported about the NCWRC law to allow for coyote hunting at night. It’s been more of a struggle for red wolves since then.
Here’s another article on another red wolf shot: click here.

Struggles continue for red wolves
May 29th, 2012The road is tough for red wolf survival. I wrote in March about another possible setback for red wolves. The NC Wildlife Resources Commission passed the proposed rule allowing night hunting of coyotes and feral pigs. There is a long process ahead, so maybe miracles do exist for this amazing animal.

I have to admit I love hunting and the outdoors. That said, I’m a big fan of reasonable regulation. What fun is hunting with artificial lights? And if we hunt all the animals all the time now, what will there be left to hunt later? Hunters are natural conservationists — unfortunately many of us just won’t know it until it’s too late. Good luck with your petition!

What a fabulous picture!
Thankful Thanksgiving news…where was that scrappy little red wolf pup born?
I believe that pup was born at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium in Tacoma, WA.
I’ll confirm to be sure.
