Evidence of Red Wolf Pups on St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge Aid in Red Wolf Recovery

U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologists have recently found evidence of a litter of pups on Florida's St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge. Wildlife Biologist, Thom Lewis, was tracking female red wolf 982 and located a rendezvous site in the middle of a sandy road that showed evidence of pups. A large area in soft sand with both adult size and many 4-5 cm canid tracks verified that female 982 and male 1124 had successfully bred and the litter had survived to this stage.
