Look how much the 7-month-old Mexican gray wolf pups have grown! Beyond being fuzzy and cute, these three critically endangered lobos represent the Wolf Conservation Center‘s active efforts to save a species from the brink of extinction. Unbeknownst to the kiddos, their grandfather, Mexican wolf M863 of the California Wolf Center, recently passed away. Our hearts go out to our friends in California, the lobos in their care, and the many who M863 had unknowingly touched. RIP, sweet lobo.

Your legacy lives on…
