Two Wolves Captured in Washington
July 21st, 2008 David King - King's Outdoor World
Reports have just come out that Wildlife Officials have captured two wolves in western Okanogan County and fitted both with radio collars to track their movements and learn more about them. They took hair samples for DNA testing to confirm that the wolves were not hybrid animals.
One of the wolves was a lactating female nursing pups. This would confirm that this is the first pair of breeding wolves int the state of Washington. The DNA test results will be back in a few weeks.
