A Mysterious and Wonderful Wolf Song

Meet Mexican gray wolf Hélène.

Beyond her soulful howl, Hélène represents the Wolf Conservation Center’s participation in the active effort to save a species on the brink of extinction.

The Mexican gray wolf or “lobo” is the most genetically distinct lineage of wolves in the Western Hemisphere, and one of the most endangered mammals in North America. By the mid-1980s, hunting, trapping, and poisoning caused the extinction of lobos in the wild, with only a handful remaining in captivity. In 1998 the wolves were reintroduced into the wild as part of a federal reintroduction program under the Endangered Species Act.
