What a lovely ending and may I say a great name!! 🥰🐺
In a major victory for wolf recovery, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service () today released an endangered Mexican gray wolf named Asha, along with her mate and pups, back into the wild. 🙏🐺
WAN previously highlighted Asha’s story after she was captured and held in captivity for roaming north of Interstate 40 in New Mexico, not once, but twice, after crossing the arbitrary northern boundary of the Mexican Wolf Experimental Population Area.
The Mexican gray wolf is one of the most endangered mammals in North America. With only 286 individuals remaining in the wild in the U.S., advocates stress that timely releases of genetically important wolves like Asha, along with her mate and pups, are vital to the survival and genetic diversity of the species. ❤️🐺
