Fact Friday: Did you know the term “Wolf Hybrid” is actually incorrect? A hybrid is a cross of two separate species. Dogs (Canis Lupus Familaris) are classified as a subspecies of Grey Wolf (canis lupus) , making them simply an interspecies cross known as Wolfdogs.

Let’s not forget, we live in a full color spectrum world. Not black & white. Wolves can be both intense apex predators and affectionate family based animals. Women can be both highly intelligent/experienced, and attractive. One does not negate the other.

We don’t need to “manage” wolf populations, we need to help them survive. Wolves manage their own population, they don’t overpopulate. Killing them is not a solution; killing them is detrimental to the ecosystem and only makes the remaining wolves in the packs more desperate.
Idaho Fish & Game says they want to reduce the wolf population to 500. In 2021, Idaho allowed the killing of 494 wolves, including pups & nursing mothers, using snares, bait, & bounties up to $2500 to incentivize the slaughter. It's time to #RelistWolves boisestatepublicradio.org/ne…

Currently, 159 wolves have been killed in Montana's controversial wolf hunt. The slaughter is ongoing in Wyoming + Idaho too. People are killing the wolves for fun, for trophies. 🚨 RT to tell @USFWS to #RelistWolves in the N. Rockies! Add your voice→ bit.ly/3XmkAwz

..when wolves fell under the Endangered Species Act. Therefore ending the breeding of pure wolves. From 1973 to today, this first generation of wolfdogs was bred to other wolfdogs or dogs, creating the multigenerational wolfdogs you see today known commonly as American Wolfdogs..

All of the wolfdogs in existence now come from multigenerational lines of wolfdog to wolfdog, or wolfdog to dog breeding pairs. So whether by science, or by history, the term “hybrid” does not apply to the wolfdog mixes. Feel free to drop any questions for next weeks fact Friday!

A great look at the breeding female of the Nashata Lake Pack, a remote pack in Voyageurs National Park. What good fortune to have our camera in the perfect spot on this beaver dam (with awesome lighting to boot!)!

Listen to some of this wolf pup’s first howls from only a few weeks ago! A little warning: the pup is pretty loud for only being 4-weeks old! (1/7)
