Breeding season is rapidly approaching! Wolves are monestrus and breed once a year in late winter, but over the next few months you'll start to notice flirtatious behavior between potential breeding pairs as their hormone levels gradually increase. Our live-streaming cameras are wondeful year round but they especially shine in the winter. Tune in now! ➡️ https://nywolf.org/meet-our-wolves/webcams/ | Wolf Conservation Center

Breeding season for gray wolves in the US spans from late January to late March.❤️ Gray wolves only breed once per year. There is usually only one breeding pair per pack, and they’ll have an average of 4-6 pups per year in April or May 🐺 However, the higher the altitude the later the breeding, so some wolves won’t breed until late March, like those in northern Canada. We’re so excited to meet the pups born in a few months across the Pacific West! 🎥: Yellowstone wolf and pup by @taylorlrabe Rep

The impending breeding season for gray wolves offers the opportunity to see many shifts in pack and individual dynamics, both in the wild and captivity. While most of our wolves are spay/neutered, they still undergo the testosterone and estrogen boosts you see in wild wolves during this time, allowing us the viewing of fascinating behaviors between individuals! | Wolf Mountain Nature Center
