OR-7 was captured on a hunter's trail camera shortly before migrating into California (A Daniels).
Just as we need to work to keep wolves alive in Idaho to provide wolves for Oregon and Washington, we need to keep wolves protected and alive in Oregon to repopulate those areas in northern California still capable of supporting a viable population of wolves. OR-7 is a pioneer and we at Cascadia Wildlands will work to make sure this pioneer or subsequent pioneers have a future in California.
Currently, stakeholders in California are working to create a gray wolf recovery and management plan, and the species was recently petitioned to be listed under the state's Endangered Species Act. Stay tuned for exciting developments with wolf recovery in California.
