Four wolves have been killed in Wyoming’s Hunt Areas 1 and 2, where Yellowstone’s Mollie’s pack has been sighted this year. The hunt zones are now closed, and it remains unclear if any of the killed wolves were from the pack until Wyoming releases its report in the spring.

Over 113,000 messages have called for the protection of Mollie’s pack, Yellowstone’s longest-established wolf family. We are bringing these voices to the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission meeting this week, advocating for the closure of hunting areas that threaten the pack. Mollie’s pack, led by the 12-year-old matriarch 1090F, has inspired many and contributed to science for decades. We are also pursuing legal action to restore federal protections for Northern Rockies wolves.
