The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service reports that on Oct. 18, Wyoming Wildlife Services confirmed a calf injured by wolves in the Upper Green River drainage. Two days later, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department confirmed a second calf injured by wolves in the same area. The calf was later euthanized due to the severity of the injuries. Control actions are ongoing to remove the two wolves that were involved in several depredations in the Upper Green River drainage this summer.

In other wolf news, FWS reports that on October 18, Wyoming Wildlife Services investigated a dead calf in the Big Horn Mountains near Ten Sleep. The calf died from causes unrelated to wolves; however, a wolf was seen scavenging the calf carcass. One set of wolf tracks was found near the carcass. A local resident recently took a photograph of a single black wolf walking through his cattle in the same area. Trapping efforts to radio collar this wolf will proceed after big game hunting season ends, FWS reports.
