Zoos Saving Mexican Gray Wolves From Extinction




Zoo Logic show

Summary: On location at Phoenix Zoo to discuss saving the endangered species, Mexican Gray Wolf, which came within a handful of founder animals from being deliberately exterminated across the West and Mexico. Senior keeper Carl Mohler describes how caring for predators that may be introduced to the wild is very different from other species found in zoos. The trust that naturally forms between keepers and most zoo animals is not only discouraged, it can place these animals and their new litter of pups at great risk.
