Meanwhile, opponents of the Health, Environment and Equity Impact rule include asphalt companies, the Greater Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce, Kirtland Air Force Base, the National Nuclear Safety Administration, and concrete manufacturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Last week, the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish announced that an intrepid wolf was on the move\u2014and had crossed Interstate 40.<\/strong> As I\u2019m sure you all remember, under federal law, Mexican wolves are only allowed to live within the Mexican wolf experimental population area in southern and central Arizona and New Mexico.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sfreporter.com\/news\/coverstories\/2023\/01\/25\/northward-peril\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">This is the same wolf who dispersed from her pack about a year ago<\/a> and made it back and forth across I-25 north of Socorro, spent some time in the Manzano Mountains, and then crossed I-40, once near Moriarty and again near Santa Rosa. (She\u2019s tagged as F2754 and was named Asha in a school competition.) Throughout her journey, biologists monitored her activity and notified local ranchers of her presence. <a href=\"https:\/\/portal.knme.org\/video\/wild-wolf-captured-near-angel-fire-b4nask\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">By January 2023, she\u2019d made it to east of Angel Fire, where she hung around long enough that a private landowner asked officials to capture her.<\/a> She was held in captivity and then returned to the experimental population area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newmexicopbs.org\/productions\/newmexicoinfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RSMexican-gray-wolf-Asha-USFWS-FPWC-cropped-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"A grey wolf walking through a dirt field.\" class=\"wp-image-43591\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.newmexicopbs.org\/productions\/newmexicoinfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RSMexican-gray-wolf-Asha-USFWS-FPWC-cropped-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.newmexicopbs.org\/productions\/newmexicoinfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RSMexican-gray-wolf-Asha-USFWS-FPWC-cropped-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.newmexicopbs.org\/productions\/newmexicoinfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RSMexican-gray-wolf-Asha-USFWS-FPWC-cropped-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.newmexicopbs.org\/productions\/newmexicoinfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RSMexican-gray-wolf-Asha-USFWS-FPWC-cropped-24x14.jpg 24w, https:\/\/www.newmexicopbs.org\/productions\/newmexicoinfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RSMexican-gray-wolf-Asha-USFWS-FPWC-cropped-36x20.jpg 36w, https:\/\/www.newmexicopbs.org\/productions\/newmexicoinfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RSMexican-gray-wolf-Asha-USFWS-FPWC-cropped-48x27.jpg 48w, https:\/\/www.newmexicopbs.org\/productions\/newmexicoinfocus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RSMexican-gray-wolf-Asha-USFWS-FPWC-cropped.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Credit: US Fish and Wildlife Service<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>But F2754 clearly doesn\u2019t want to hang out with her natal pack. She wants to head north.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This time, however, she took a different route, and was, at last notice, in the Jemez Mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Aislinn Maestas, public affairs specialist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, as of Monday, she was in a forested area where \u201ccapture is not feasible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maestas says the agency is monitoring her movements and is working with partners (including the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish) to \u201ccapture her at the earliest opportunity.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If she\u2019s captured, she\u2019ll be placed in captivity and paired with a male\u2014and then translocated back into the wild next spring, hopefully with pups.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, environmental groups, including Defenders of Wildlife and a coalition including the Center for Biological Diversity, WildEarth Guardians, Western Watersheds Project, New Mexico Wild, Wolf Conservation Center, Rio Grande Chapter Sierra Club, and Grand Canyon Wolf Recovery Program are urging wildlife agencies to allow the female wolf to disperse\u2014and a press release from the coalition notes that successful recovery of the species requires \u201cthree interconnected subpopulations of at least 200 wolves each, one in the Gila Bioregion, one in the southern Rocky Mountains, and one in the Grand Canyon Ecoregion.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully, F2754 will stay safe\u2014from roads, from human malice or carelessness, and from people who might inadvertently shoot her during hunting season. I know things aren\u2019t easy for her right now, as she\u2019s exploring new territory and living entirely on her own. Earlier this year, I spoke with Brady McGee, Mexican Wolf Recovery Coordinator for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, while we were standing around in the snow, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoGAGfWpTfV\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">waiting for the helicopter to deliver tranquilized wolves to the mobile vet unit set up near Apache Creek.<\/a> He said they didn&#8217;t know what F2754 was eating during that first journey north; that she was maybe scavenging food. And he said, she was small and hungry when they captured her.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I\u2019d be lying if I didn\u2019t admit that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sfreporter.com\/news\/coverstories\/2023\/01\/25\/northward-peril\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">I\u2019m cheering her on<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And just a reminder that Mexican wolves outside the experimental area are protected under the Endangered Species Act. They can\u2019t be hazed or harassed, and anyone convicted of killing, harming or harassing an endangered Mexican wolf is subject to a fine and\/or criminal charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>On Sunday I had a fascinating conversation with author Ben Goldfarb, who was in Santa Fe promoting his new book,<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/wwnorton.com\/books\/9781324005896\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Crossings: How Road Ecology Is Shaping the Future of Our Planet<\/em>.<\/a> We talked all about road ecology, ways to make infrastructure safer for animals, funding in the Infrastructure Act for wildlife crossings, bucket brigades\u2014and about compassion for animals.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s always remarkable to me <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/business\/2022\/12\/30\/american-pet-spending\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how much Americans love their dogs<\/a>, yet dismiss the deaths of millions of deer, bears, rabbits, coyotes, foxes, armadillos, and other species as \u201croadkill\u201d and an inevitable part of our modern lives.&nbsp;(Just on my drive from Albuquerque to Santa Fe, I tallied 16 dead animals on the road and saw an extremely vulnerable squirrel who was at risk of being hit, too. As Goldfarb pointed out, those were just the carcasses big enough to be seen while driving at a high speed. There are also countless insects, lizards, birds, rodents, and other small animals hit all the time.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like his book, <em>Eager<\/em>, which energized people about beavers, Goldfarb\u2019s <em>Crossings<\/em> is sure to fire people up about better protecting animals from vehicle collisions and lessening the impacts of roads on species\u2014and individual animals\u2014across the world. If you haven\u2019t read the book yet, do check it out. It\u2019s really good.
