American Red Wolf Survival
As an apex predator, the American Red Wolf has a tremendous impact on the environment in which it lives. Studies support the species' role in enhancing diversity, balance, and stability of the plants and animals in their native ecosystems.
A C2S2 Affiliate Member, the Endangered Wolf Center, was one of the first facilities to breed American Red Wolves in captivity in 1981. Since then, more than 40 facilities have joined the cause. Our collective goal is to grow the captive population, increase conservation breeding program participation and space, progress with husbandry and research priorities, and conduct positive outreach for this misunderstood species.
