Quote:Wolf 17F 


"On July 18, shortly after #17F and #34M had moved their pups to a rendezvous site, a tracking flight picked up a mortality signal from #17F’s radio collar. She was picked up that day, and a necropsy later revealed that she had been gored in the chest by a stick. Foul play by humans was not suspected, so it was probable that the wound was sustained while the wolf was chasing an elk. "

*Note* : I transferred this thread to my forum : The Domain of the Wolf and updated and added many informations from the multiples sources I red. Hope it is understandable.  Also, there is a problem with the spacing between texts sometimes which i can't fix. Sorry for the inconvenience it might cause.

Although all the informations are based from my review, searches and documentation of my searches on the Internet, some informations can be, and are inaccurate due to new papers coming out, new genetics analyses, etc etc.
