Advances in wolf monitoring with high tech help from OSP Fish and Wildlife Troopers
In this video taken May 2022 in southwest Oregon, an adult wolf from the LAS13/OR115 group returns to its den. The video was taken from about 10,000 feet with a gyro-stabilized daytime and infrared video camera in one of OSP Fish and Wildlife’s planes.
Wildlife biologists typically use trail cameras and GPS radio collars to monitor wolf activity. During summer, that monitoring includes looking for pups out of the den.
Wolf pups are typically born in April, weaned in June, can weigh about 35 pounds by August, and sometimes wander away from the den or rendezvous site at this time of year.
