Elyse Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) Are all here: http://www.wildearth.tv/wolves The wolf conservation centre's official website is here: nywolf.org (I so want to visit there!!) The cams are free to watch. Everything's quiet at the moment, but occasionally you hear howls, especially from this one: http://www.wildearth.tv/wcc-red-wolf-1-den-webcam (One of the red wolf enclosure dens, its a pipe so it amplifies the sounds in the park.) This one (http://www.wildearth.tv/wcc-red-wolf-1-enclosure-webcam) is the most active one I've been watching, with the Red wolves. The time zone is Eastern (EST), and usually stuff goes on during the morning hours, late afternoon, and early evening/sunset. After dusk, you usually don't see them as often but you hear them (howling) more often at night. I love Red wolves, but unfortunately they are critically endangered. Back in 1980, they almost went extinct (went extinct in the wild, and had only 11 individuals in captivity around the world), but they are slowly recovering. I believe most of them are still captive, but they're trying to release some young ones into the wild now. Even still, biologists estimate they'll still go extinct in my lifetime...because their genetic pool is so small...having only come from 11 individuals. So, basically, all of the Red wolves alive right now are related (distantly or otherwise) to each other.

Elyse Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 They were pretty active this morning at around 6:50. Were howling and everything. Now things are quiet again (7:13am), though I suspect we'll see some action soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
