What are some reintroduction techniques that are used?
Mexican Wolf Reintroduction Project (Project) personnel are committed to adaptive management for wolf recovery. This means that all management techniques are evaluated continually and, if necessary, revised. All adult wolves released are fitted with radio collars prior to their transfer to the acclimation pens. During the acclimation period, the wolves are fed road-killed native prey. Once released at the appropriate time, the wolves are monitored closely and supplementally fed for one to two months until it is apparent that they are hunting on their own.
