Wolf Pup Survival

In Yellowstone, usually 70% of pups survive. When more survive, they typically don’t get as much to eat because their pack can’t keep up with all calories needed as pups grow quickly. This past winter (2020-2021), most of the Yellowstone wolf pups survived. Thank heavens, because the governors of the states surrounding Yellowstone are letting hunters get away with killing as many wolves as they can find.
