Wolves

A carnivore related to the jackal and domestic dog, two species of wolves are recognized. One is C. lupus, the gray or timber wolf, which was once widely distributed in North America, Europe, and Asia. The other is Canis lupus rufus, the red wolf, which now only occurs in northeastern North Carolina and on St. Vincent's Island off the Gulf Coast of Florida.

Are there Northwestern gray wolves in Pennsylvania?

This is a great and controversial question. State and local governments don't recognize wolves in this area. When I was young, early to mid 1990s we use to go to a small country store in NEPA behind the counter there were pictures of animals the owner had photographed. Two in particular always stood out. He had plenty of deer, bear, and coyotes but he also had a wolf and cougar. My uncle was sure there were no wolves here. The owner took him outside to the back and he showed us that the picture was indeed taken in the backyard. It was nearly three times the size of the coyotes with that indistinguishable face. The cougar was another animal people sware aren't there. So much so history channel's monster quest filmed our area in search of mountain lions with no luck. These I have seen in person driving on a dirt road at night. I nearly hit one. It didn't even flee. It's head was well over the hood of the Toyota camery I was in. In my opinion, the more important question is are they still here. people tend to forget that there is an awful lot of woods out here.

Does the gray wolf help or harm people?

Wolves definitely don't harm people. In North America there isn't one recorded incident of a healthy wolf attacking a person . . . ever. Also, a lot of farmers complain that wolves are responsible for the death of some of their livestock and, while this is true, wolves cause significantly fewer deaths to domesticated animals than do dogs, coyotes, or mountain lions. Wolves are a wonderful animal that is desperately needed in order to obtain balance within the ecosystem. In fact, in the absence of wolves deer and other horned prey overpopulate and can cause trees to die off because they rub their bodies and horns against them so wolves are actually tree conservationists! Wolves have a rich family life that humans could learn a thing or two from but for the most part they just want to be left alone.
