Even small population of red wolves — like in North Carolina — have noticeable impact on ecosystem, researchers find
A paper was published observing a correlation between the red wolf’s decline and increases in many of the animals the wolves hunt. In the peer-reviewed journal Animal Conservation, scientists said that correlation suggests that even a small population of red wolves, like the one that persists at Alligator River and nearby Pocosin Lakes in northeastern North Carolina, can have a noticeable impact on the broader ecosystem.
