A pack of 10 wolves was caught on film traveling in Northeastern Oregon. Once extinct in the region, wolves were re-introduced to Central Idaho and Yellowstone National Park in 1994. A few stragglers have ventured into Oregon since then, but this is the first time a full pack has been confirmed. It’s exciting to see wolves back in the Beaver State!
Our friends at the Conservation Alliance had some great news to share from north of the border… O Canada!

Conservation Alliance grantee Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS) announced final success yesterday in its campaign to expand the boundaries of Nahanni National Park Reserve in Canada’s Northwest Territories.
Canadian Environment Minister Jim Prentice announced that the park’s boundaries would be expanded by 7 million acres, the size of Vancouver Island. The Conservation Alliance twice funded the Nahanni campaign, and are pleased to celebrate this success with CPAWS.
