Are there any wolf sanctuaries in Texas?

Answer 1

Historically, gray wolves were found over the western 2/3 of the state. Today, none remain in Texas.

Answer 2

I have lived in Texas a long time and here is what I hope will answer your question. Over the last 2 and a half decades there has been decreasing pressure on the populations of predators from things like trapping and methodical hunting by ranchers. The result is that the populations of predators like coyotes, foxes, bobcats, and mountain lions have been able to make a huge comeback. Not only that but having spent a lot of time in a lot of different wilderness areas of Texas I can tell you that jaguars are starting to come across the border and establish populations here as well. I have not seen any wolves but I have seen some large packs of coyotes and sometimes they get rather large, especially the alpha individual of said packs I don't think that it is impossible for some of these wolf packs that are being reestablished in Arizona and New Mexico to have a few lone wolves reestablish either a small pack or bread with the coyote population to make massive coyotes. Just so you know another name for coyote is the prairie wolf.

Answer 3

About 25 years ago I saw a large grey timber wolf in Marion county, Texas. It wasn't a coyote or a dog or a crossbreed of anything. It was a Timber wolf. I saw it from about 20 or 30 feet. There was no mistaking it. So anyone who says there are no wolves in East Texas doesn't know what they are talking about. They are rare, probably even more so now, but they do exist.

Answer 4

The wolves of Texas have long since been extirpated. There is some talk of reintroducing the Mexican wolf but that idea is not very popular with most ranchers.
