    Not all the drawings in our We Love NY, Nasdaq Times Square campaign are by children! My drawing of the Wolf Conservation Center 's famous ambassador wolf, Atka, also features. I was privileged to meet magnificent Atka before he sadly passed away on September 22, 2018. It seemed rather fitting that Atka should return to New York on his remembrance day last Sunday.

    Two of the Wolf Conservation Center's tiniest residents received their first health check today. The duo (both boys) are healthy and strong, two qualities that are crucial if captive-to-wild adult releases resume in the future. Unbeknownst to them, they represent the WCC's active efforts to save their endangered species from extinction. Thank you, kiddos!

    Earlier this month, 5 Mexican gray wolf pups flew from the WCC to New Mexico, where they were fostered into a wild wolf den. While we are incredibly excited for these pups to potentially have long wild lives ahead of them, we must acknowledge Trumpet’s unknowing sacrifice. Over the years, 12 of Trumpet's 24 pups have been fostered and only one, Slides, is known to still be alive in the wild. While Trumpet still has two remaining pups to care for, it would be cruel of us to assume that she doesn't feel any loss or sadness. Join us in sending congratulatory howls to the pups in New Mexico, and please send loving howls to Trumpet; without her, we would not have fostered a single pup over the years. Hopefully we’ll one day see adults and family groups released again – methods that would truly improve genetic diversity in the wild and would keep families intact.
