M2246 and M2247 are grown up now, however they grew up at the Museum so we have baby pics to share! Five weeks old might be my favorite age for red wolf pups. Not a whole lot of sleeping going on in the middle of the night. Watch closely in the first video as F2062 grabs a snack (rat). She deserves a 2 AM snack as she sure puts up with a lot from her boys. Enjoy the videos (I’ll postRead more

Love Red Wolves
With F2062 cycling, we hope to see some ties between her and M1803 very soon. February 13-26 is the window when we are likely to see the wolves breeding. Last year, Valentines Day was the sweet spot! I just ordered my sweatshirt– you can click here and order your own to help support not only the wolves here but red wolf conservation as a whole. I’m a huge fan of this design since it’s based off a real picture. KeeperRead more
Red Wolf Backsides
At this time of year, we watch female, F2062, to see if she is cycling. Look what Ranger Greg espied a few days ago! It was last year at this time that Ranger Greg caught some even better photos!Read more
Male 1803
M1803 has been at the Museum for just about 15 months– not long at all. He’s been a huge presence since his arrival back in November 2017. We crated him up Tuesday morning November 14 and drove him from the Wolf Conservation Center in one very long day of driving. Here’s the very first blog post we put up about him— before he even arrived at the museum! Click here to see the first pictures of him settling in withRead more
Brother Wolves: 2246 & 2247
I can’t keep calling M2246 and M2247 pups. They haven’t been pups for many many months. However, they were pups born at the Museum on April 20, 2018 and, unlike with the pups born in 2017, are still here almost one year later. All these pictures of our juveniles are from mid January. The boys are almost full grown with just a little more weight to put on over the next few months. When they were born, 2246 was largerRead more
F2062: Mother Wolf
February is here so it’s red wolf breeding season! Actually, breeding season and mating can occur in January (or even March), but that’s not the case here. The second half of February is our focus of the last couple years. Ranger Greg has amazing posts about red wolves and mating- so many to choose from… head over to his Blog to see. Check out his post about canid estrus cycles. It’s a easy and quick review of the red wolfRead more
