In The Wild (in situ)

Wild red wolf pups relaxing at Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge by Nancy Arehart

The less association the wild pups have with humans the better their chances of survival will be as adults. Wild pups at age 7 months will be in serious jeopardy if they have learned to tolerate the presence of humans, even at a distance, and if they regard humans as harmless. Help red wolves by keeping your distance!
