Researchers are howling with delight after discovering a new pack of endangered gray wolves in California

A new pack of endangered gray wolves has shown up in California's Sierra Nevada, several hundred miles away from any other known population.

The state Fish and Game Department says a reported sighting of a wolf in Sequoia National Forest last month led to the discovery of tracks and DNA samples.

A new pack of gray wolves has shown up in California's Sierra Nevada, several hundred miles away from any other known population of the endangered species, wildlife officials announced Friday. It's a discovery to make researchers howl with delight, given that the native species was hunted to extinction in California in the 1920s. Only in the past decade or so have a few gray wolves wandered back into the state from out-of-state packs.
