Idaho's
Wolves
Some
history of the Idaho Wolves....In 1924 the last of the
wild wolves
were eradicated from the Yellowstone by the federal
Government when two pups were killed near Soda Butte, in
the NE corner of the Park. A few
stragglers still persisted in Wyoming until 1943 when
they too were
killed. After more than a decade 14 wolves were brought
from western Alberta and brought to Yellowstone. 15 more
were captured and sent to central Idaho. Placed in three
acclimation camps the packs were named after the
locations. The Crystal Creek Pack, The Rose creek Pack
and the Soda Butte Pack. Later that year a natural pack
formed that was called the
Leopold Pack.
THE ROSE
CREEK PACK – 1995
It originally three wolves R7F, R9F, and R10M.
They were put together and was not a natural pack. The
female, no. 9F and her red pup, no. 7F were from one
pack. The large gray male, no. 10M, originated from
another. After sizing each other for a while they
eventually accepted each other and eventually mated later
in January. No 10 was later killed by an over zealous
hunter while he was exploring. No 9 gave birth to 8 pups
which was later captured with No9 for their own safety
and kept at the Rose Creek pen. They were released again
in October 1995. From 1996 to 1997 they dominated the
northern part of Yellowstone but with competition from
the famous Druid Pack
