Implementing recovery of the red wolf-integrating research scientists and managers

Abstract: The United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) developed guidelines for the composition and role of endangered species recovery implementation teams, but few teams have been established and their success has not been evaluated. Using the recovery program of the red wolf (Canis rufus) as a model, we describe the genesis, function, and success of the Red Wolf Recovery Implementation Team (RWRIT) in helping guide the establishment of a viable red wolf population in eastern North Carolina. In operation since … Show more

“…The red wolf "once roamed an extensive range including the southeastern United States, and possibly the entire woodlands of eastern North America" (Stoskopf et al, 2005(Stoskopf et al, , p. 1146. Due to anthropogenic factors (hunting, habitat destruction, economic development, etc.)…”

“…As a result of this effort, wild populations of pure red wolves have been restored in the United States using Point Defiance wolves relocated to eastern North Carolina. This version of the red wolf story is based on others told elsewhere (e.g., Adams et al, 2003;Bohling & Waits, 2011;Manganiello, 2009;Roth et al, 2008;Stoskopf et al, 2005) and I intentionally include specific terms repeatedly occurring in those accounts, such as threaten, fear, genetically swamped, hybrid swarm, pure. Let us focus on the words "pure" and "threat" as an example.…”

“…Efforts to restore C. rufus in the wild have faced setbacks primarily due to hybridization with C. latrans (Phillips et al 2003;Stoskopf et al 2005). Current management involves minimizing hybridization and increasing red wolf habitat through removal and sterilization of nonwolves (Stoskopf et al 2005).…”

“…Current management involves minimizing hybridization and increasing red wolf habitat through removal and sterilization of nonwolves (Stoskopf et al 2005). Because asymmetry in population size between expanding C. latrans and declining C. rufus likely prompted disequilibrium and hybrid zone expansion, in theory C. rufus may be recovered if hybridization is reduced at least until C. latrans can be excluded naturally by an established C. rufus population.…”
