NPR: Gray Wolves To Be Removed From Endangered Species List A gray wolf is captured by a remote camera on U.S. Forest Service land in Oregon in 2017. Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife/AP |
As recently as October 2020, the gray wolf was removed from the Endangered Species List, losing protective status in the contiguous states where over 6,000 wolves populate. The gray wolf was placed on this list in 1974. A transient wolf will travel through South Dakota. According to the US Fish & Wildlife Service, there isn't a wolf population in our fair state, but wolves are prevalent in Minnesota and surrounding states.
