Do timber wolves live in Tennessee?

Answer 1

Red Wolves. And they're hybrids, not full blooded. They were deliberately introduced into the Smoky's (North Carolina side) where they've slowly expanded from the Carolina's into some parts of Tennessee. They 'were' originally full bloods that were born in captivity, later released into the wild. Since their release, they've populated off-spring with coyote and scientists & reseachers have since classified them as "hybrids".

Answer 2

The Timber Wolf also known as the Eastern Wolf The Eastern Wolf mainly occupies the area in and around Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario, and also ventures into adjacent parts of Quebec, Canada. It also may be present in Minnesota and Manitoba. In the past, this species might have ranged south into the United States, but after the arrival of Europeans, these wolves were heavily persecuted and became extirpated from the United States. In Canada, exact numbers of Eastern Canadian Wolves are unknown. In Algonquin wolves often travel outside the park boundaries, and enter farm country where some are killed. "Of all the wolf deaths recorded from 1988 to 1999, a minimum of 66% was caused by humans. Shooting and snaring outside park boundaries were the leading causes of death for wolves radio-collared in Algonquin Park" (Theberge 1998, CBSG 2000). One wolf that was radio-collared in July 1992 was located in October in Gatineau Park (north of Ottawa), which is 170 km from Algonquin Park. By mid-December it had made its way back to Algonquin ,and then, in March 1993, this wolf's severed head was found nailed to a telephone pole in Round Lake by a man who hated wolves. They used to, but not any more. If you hear any howling like songs in the night, it's likely coyotes or dogs or hybrids
