Oregon Annual Wolf Report Shows No Population Growth For First Time In 16 Years; ‘The Amount Of Poaching, Other Suspicious Deaths Alarming’

The minimum known count of wolves in Oregon at the end of 2023 was 178 wolves, according to the Oregon Wolf Conservation and Management annual report released this week by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. This is the same number documented in 2022 and does not include 10 wolves translocated to Colorado in 2023 to help establish a wolf population there.
