Red Wolf
The red wolf is the world's most endangered wolf. Once common throughout the Eastern and South Central United States, red wolf populations were decimated by the early 20th century as a result of intensive predator control programs and the degradation and alteration of the species' habitat.

What can we do to help?
Red wolves are critically endangered with only 62 known individuals left in the wild, Mexican wolves only have about 100 in the wild. We are launching the #Howl4Wolves campaign to show that the American public cares about wolves, wildlife and conservation. We need US Fish and Wildlife Service to help these critically endangered species...before it is too late. Please, take the challenge, howl for wolves and nominate others to do the same. Together, with one strong voice, we can make a difference.

3 Things you can do to help Red Wolves
1. Write a letter to your state representative letting them know that you care about red wolves, that you believe that the Red Wolf program should continue. If you’re not sure what to say, check out this example letter.
Find your representatives using your zipcode+4.
Don’t know the +4 on your zipcode? Find it here.
Once you have entered the zip +4 click “Show Me” and your representatives will be on the next page. Click their names to get to their websites.
Look for a contact link and enter your information, write your letter, and send – it’s that easy!
2. Share the Red Wolf Story. Let others know about Red Wolves in general and the threat they are facing specifically. Have a chat over coffee with a friend, tell your PTA group, bring up at the water cooler at work. Share the Story and let them know what actions they can take too.
3. Post a #Howl4Wolves Video. Show everyone your “wild” side by posting a video on social media about why you love red wolves and conservation. Challenge/tag others to do the same. Howl at the end of the video. Share it on social media, tag your nominees and use #How4Wolves. You can check out #Howl4Wolves video on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
