~ paraphrased from Wikipedia (visit link) ~Since 1987, red wolves (Canis rufus rufus) have been released into 1.7 millions acres in northeastern North Carolina (in the five counties of Dare, Hyde, Tryrrell, Washington and Beaufort). The current status in North Carolina is “endangered” and the population numbers around 100 wild animals.
