A hunter killed one of the rare lone wolves to roam the upstate New York wilderness during a hunt for coyotes last December, a recent DNA analysis confirmed.
There have only been three gray wolves, which are protected as endangered species in the Empire State, identified by scientists in upstate New York over the past quarter-century, according to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The creature killed by the hunter was initially believed to be a coyote.
Upon a subsequent review, the DEC confirmed Princeton's conclusion and is evaluating whether additional research into the deceased canine is warranted as officials wolf down the data.
