The North Carolina Zoo has welcomed three litters of red wolf pups, bringing in a dozen new members of the world’s most endangered wolf species
The wolves were born during a three-day period in late April and are part of the zoo’s red wolf breeding program, it said in a news release. “All pups and their mothers are healthy and doing well. This is the first time in the Zoo’s breeding program that three litters were born in one spring,” the zoo said in the release. Next month, the zoo plans to announce a public naming poll for one of the litters.
“These births are important because many of our wolves, once matured, have been moved to other breeding packs to continue to help bring this species back from near extinction. Our hope is that more and more red wolves can soon be placed into the wild,” said Reid Wilson, the secretary of North Carolina’s natural and cultural resources department.
