Conclusions from Research Wolves are often found in children's stories for young readers. The fact is that many young children know little about real wolves due to the fact that they are no longer found in the wild with any frequency in the lower 48 states in America with the exception of Minnesota. In conducting an informal survey of students to establish their knowledge of wolves, it was discovered that few had ever seen a wolf. Talking about wolves in our fairy tales and stories prompted the children to be more curious about why we no longer see these large predators in our rural community of Southwest Virginia. Many of our students are aware that we DO have packs of wild dogs and some coyotes that roam our farmland. They often take advantage of newborn calves and lambs as prey. But none had ever heard of wolves being seen in this same community. This prompted our class to discover why we no longer have wolves in our area, yet have other large wolf-like predators. The main thing that most students think they know about wolves are that they are not seen in our area. They know what they dog-like features and should be feared for their strengths as a predator. Luckily we have a nature center, Bays Mountain Park, nearby that has established a small pack of socialized wolves for public viewing and education. A socialized pack simply means that wolves were hand- reared by humans as pups rather than remaining with their wolf mothers in a den. These socialized wolves are easier to handle for medical treatment and are more suited to public exposure than the typical wolf found in the wild. Each Spring, our Second Grade classes take a field trip to this nature center and prepare themselves for the experience by studying wolves prior to their trip. During this study we dispel myths about the wolf that have continued through history and explore the pack behavior that gives the wolf the power to be a successful predator.

102. Endangered Species: *[NAME OF SPECIES]*
     As you know the Arctic wolf is endangered. There are a couple reasons that causeits endangerment. One is because of its pelt ( its fur ).

     Extractions: Arctic Wolf http://www.artlithos.com/sum.htm Why Study This Topic? What Was Already Known Search for Information ... Conclusions from Research I want to know this animal's habitat (where it lives), what it eats, what eats it, how it survives, and what it needs to live. I also want to know what it looks like. For example, how big it is, how tall and long it is, and how much it weighs. I also wonder what colors it could be. Does it have a favorite food? Does it live in packs or by itself? I want to know what animals it gets along with and which animals are its enemy. I also need to know how well it smells, how good is its eyesight, how many pups are in a litter, at what age must it move out and become an adult. I am interested in the Arctic wolf because it is such a neat animal. It can run fast and kill animals larger than itself - such as caribou. I am also interested in all animals, not just the wolf. I want to help them stay alive and not become extinct, like other animals. Some animals are amazing and some are good for people for food, for medicine, and for cheering them up. Animals are a great creation. I don't want them to become extinct. I knew that the Arctic wolf lived in the Arctic. I also knew that it is related to dogs. Arctic wolves live in packs and eat caribou. I didn't know much about this animal until I started researching it.

     Extractions: How can you tell the difference between a timber wolf and a coyote or a large dog? Size is a key difference between coyotes and wolves. A coyote is only half as big as a wolf. Wolves can be distinguished by tracks and various physical features. A wolf usually places its hind foot in the track left by the front foot, whereas a dog's front and hind foot tracks usually do not overlap each other. Wolves also differ from most dogs by having a narrower chest, longer legs, large feet, large head with cheek hair tufts, tail held down or straight but not curled, black tipped tail, and black spot on back of the tail.

Three decades after gray wolves were nearly extinct in the lower 48 states, Interior Secretary Gale Norton announced today that the Eastern Population Segment of gray wolves has recovered to the point where it can be proposed for removal from the list of threatened and endangered species. Wolves in the Eastern Population Segment, located in Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin, have climbed beyond the population criteria set out in the species' recovery plan, Norton said. The three states have management plans in place to ensure the species' long-term survival. "Thirty years ago, the future of the gray wolf in the United States outside of Alaska was anything but certain," Norton said. "Today we celebrate not only the remarkable comeback of the gray wolf, but the partnerships, dedicated efforts and spirit of conservation that have made this success story possible."

     Extractions: July 6, 2005 TODAY'S BYLINE: Schneberger is a ranching activist who lives in Winston, N.M. Compare for just a moment the differences in the participants in the latest round of public meetings on wolf-reintroduction in New Mexico. A recent meeting in Reserve was attended by families with children. They were very much like everyday Albuquerque families, only they are out on the range. Ranchers are small-business men and women, who lose their livelihoods with every calf or cow killed by a wolf. They deal with death and disaster every day in their herds. They also deal with tremendous stress. The venomous hatred expressed towards them at some of the more-urban meetings on the wolf is a shock. Ranchers' herds are their restaurants, flower shops and construction companies, providing futures for their families and homes for their children. No one would expect a business to tolerate a robbery every night or police who do nothing to stop it. Businesses have the right to protect their interests and their property. Regarding wolf attacks, ranchers have to prove they are being harmed first, then beg and persuade a doubting and slow-acting agency to help them, when it is not in the agency's best interest. They must then deal with the environmental movement and what it means to make extremist wolf-supporters mad. No one would expect an Albuquerque businessman or family to tolerate this kind of political pressure.

Reviewer: Review: The long debate over the reintroduction of the gray wolf to the northern Rockies is a good example of how transactions costs the costs involved in organizing parties on either side of the issue, bringing parties together to bargain, and the actual bargain itself can often impede the bargaining process and delay action, especially in the case of environmental problems. In 1978, the federal government listed the wolf as an endangered species in the lower 48 states (except for a population in Minnesota that was classified as threatened). Two years later, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), which is responsible for protecting endangered species, produced a recovery plan for wolves in the Rocky Mountains which included reintroducing several Canadian wolves into Yellowstone and central Idaho. The first group of wolves was finally released into these regions in January 1995, 15 years after the original proposal. Why was the negotiation process over this issue so drawn out?

     Extractions: Find a Service Center OFFICIAL STATUS: Endangered. Endangered species are species that are in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of their range. It is unlawful to kill, harm, or harass endangered species. LISTED: 43 Federal Register 9612; March 9, 1978 (48 conterminous states except Minnesota). HISTORICAL STATUS: The gray wolf had the greatest distribution of any mammal other than man and was historically found throughout North America with the exception of parts of the southwest and southeast United States. In the southeast U.S. the gray wolf was replaced by the smaller red wolf. The gray wolf was present throughout Montana. PRESENT STATUS: The gray wolf is extirpated from the lower 48 states with the exception of Minnesota and small populations in Montana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Idaho, and Washington. Montana wolf populations are found in the Glacier National Park— Bob Marshall Wilderness complex and in the extreme southwestern part of the state. Wolf populations have recovered in Minnesota and are recovering in other areas of the lower 48 states. HABITAT: Historically, the gray wolf occupied almost all habitats in North American including the Great Plains.

Representing the future of their kind, three families of Mexican gray wolves (Canis lupus baileyi) were released at the end of March into the mountains and woodlands of Apache National Forest in eastern Arizona. The release of these 11 captive-bred animals into the wild is a milestone in the effort to restore the endangered Mexican wolf to a portion of its historic range in the Southwest. Cooperators in the project include the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), the Arizona Game and Fish Department, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (through its Forest Service and Wildlife Services. The wolves had been held in acclimation pens since January 26, when Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt, Arizona Game and Fish Department Director Duane Shroufe, FWS Director Jamie Rappaport Clark, and Acting Regional Forester John Kirkpatrick carried crates containing Mexican wolves to the first release site in the mountains along the Arizona-New Mexico border. Until the release, Mexican wolves had not existed in the wild in the United States since 1970.
