Wild Red Wolves in North Carolina
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 бер 2019
- Wild red wolves in eastern North Carolina. Alligator River National wildlife refuge is home to some of the last red wolves in the world. The last estimate is between 35-40 wolves. On this particular morning I was lucky enough to witness and photograph 4 individuals. All of them happen to be colored. Also I had 3 encounters with the illusive bobcat! Only got a couple of images and a brief moment captured of video. I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think!

I'd say this is very award winning, great job man!
Thanks!
This made me tear up a little. I volunteer at a breeding center for these guys in Missouri. They have had a very hard time coming back from extinction. So few people know about them and it seems like most people who do want them removed from the wild altogether. Its so nice to see them wild.
Thanks for watching! I’m hoping they can be recovered once again!
People are idiots. 100 million new people in US since 1993 and what3-600 wolves in a country of 4 million square miles? It’s sad. Wish there was enough land and regulation for enough untouched wildlife. Won’t happen at this rate, we may end up like China with a billion people and zoos
I so hope these beautiful animals can make a comeback
Hope so! They are releasing more this winter! :)
They are making a comeback in 2020 there was only 15-14 wild Red Wolves in Estern North Carolina now in 2024 there is 20-22 wolves
It’s so beautiful to see how much joy these incredible animals bring you… a feeling I also share as I teared up several times. Thank you for sharing 😊
BEYOND AWESOME! Thank you for sharing this incredible experience - you made it so real for all of us, and your enthusiasm is contagious!
My favorite animal I really appreciate this video thanks 🙏🏾
Thanks!!
I’m here because last night on our farm we saw two very large wolves. One was grey and the other black. We are in Davie county in NC. I wasn’t able to get a picture because I was trying to get my dogs inside. But they were very large…almost looked like a small cow. Also last year we shot a picture of a red wolf walking down behind our house in the middle of day.
Thank you!!
I saw one in the Ambler Horsham area of Pa. I'm used to seeing coyotes when I was living in Arizona this was bigger than a coyote I have a medium size mastiff not as heavy but size and length it equalled, whst a beautiful animal. Great film, I've must of watched it at least 10 times and will keep watching it, thank you for sharing
Awesome! ... thank you for the kind words and for watching!
lovely thank you for getting fotage of our wolves...
Absolutely beautiful this area is stunning❤️
Cool shots! I'll have to make a trip out there sometime
Phenomenal stuff, Neil. It was a great day to be out there!
Thanks!!
I've been there twice in the last month. Always looking for bobcats and wolves, I have seen an otter from a distance, a bear from twenty feet (four years ago), bears in the fields, eagles, turkeys, outstanding alligator shots, and I am hoping to get the rest. It was really cool to see your enthusiasm and your exultation upon reaching your goals. Thanks for sharing, I feel just like you do about that magical place!
Thank you for sharing
thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this video. the red wolves and that bobcat were amazing. I would love to see the wild red wolves! The bob cat looked so big and healthy! I have a mother bobcat living near me in Florida that I see now and then. She had 2 kittens this year. (I saw your video posted on RWC FB page)
Goosebumps dude!! Happy they’re still chilling in NC
Thanks!!
Wow! This is incredible 💕🐺💕
Thank you!!
☺️
Thanks Neil
Love it Neil! Absolutely Amazing shots and video!
Loved seeing this - thank you so much!
Fascinating stuff. Amazing footage. Love your work!
I literally just saw one on carova beach NC last week and came back south on the beach and saw 5 wild horses. I didn't know what I saw. Thought it was a huge coyote. Nope, one red wolf. It was twice the size of my German shepherd hound mix who was riding inside my truck with me
I wish I would have pulled my phone up and got it all on video. I was too busy trying to figure out what it was lol
Thanksgiving 2020 corolla highway 12 where the pavement ends and the 4x4 beach begins.. I think its called carova. That's where I saw the red wolf and the wild horses.
It’s possible. There are a lot of coyotes out on the outer banks too
great video.. I was lucky on my first visit to video the red wolves.. haven't seen them since. I will be there March 24 looking for them & the bob cat and hoping to see a bear or two .. thanks for sharing your work
Awesome!! good luck!!!
Just catching up on your vlogs, but to see 10% of red wolves in your area, that's just amazing.
Yes it was! I was very fortunate on that day!
Wild population is 17 in 2021.
What a great day in the field. Calmness and patience made it happen for you. Congratulations well done
It was an amazing day! Thank you!
Awesome work Neil, I would have packed it up and called it a day after the 4 wolves! 🤣 I have enjoyed the random Neil videos that now pop up on my YT timeline lately.
Haha! Awesome! Well thanks for watching it helps me out with each view. Who knows maybe I can be a full time you tuber one of these days 😂
Love your video bro you killed it
Thanks Richard! I appreciate it!
I appreciate you...keep making these great videos
I love your passion and enthusiasm, it even makes me happy
Absolutely awesome. We recently bought a place in Columbia on the Albemarle sound we love the alligator refuge we rather go there then to the beach. Thank you for sharing another awesome video.
Great video!
I need to get back down there soon. What an amazing experience that must have been!
I got my redwolf from a guy that found a litter of pups and the mom was shot! That was 15 yrs ago but I bred a male to a female malamute and he is not 2.5 yrs old now and people in my college town all think he’s a husky! But he’s high maintainability! Unless you have a secure enclosure with chain link in the ground on bottom of the pen that also has a chain link top! And you have time (3-6) hrs a day to be with them they can and will chew thru the chain link! I also have hog wire panels outside the. Chain link! They are very easy to train and socialize but ya can’t trust them to not escape! They can dig under any fence that’s not secured in concrete ! They are Houdini’s
Lol, you clearly didn’t find a Red Wolf stupid. Stop making up stupid lies like this. You had a Domestic Dog and that’s all.
Neil, you had a great day!!
I was on the wall about traveling here from black mountain nc I now believe I will for sure now......when the game is moveing its moveing.....I just found your channel....
Awesome!! Thanks for watching & good luck on your outing!!
Great stuff.
Awesome great job, they look amazing, you can kind of tell they're not coyotes even though they look smaller like them.
You've given me a new goal. I visit the refuge to see bear but really haven't expected to see the wolves. Awesome footage.
Unfortunately, they are now only nine left in the wild.
I've been to the alligator river wildlife refuge many times. Seen bear, but would love to see red wolf. Great video. Thanks.
Getting harder and harder to see them...only about 12 left in the wild now. Thanks for watching!
Very good stuff!
Thank you!
Very cool! I've been to the OBX twice now but still haven't made it out to Alligator yet. I would love to see a red wolf. Next time I've gotta go and try. I'm in the mountains of western NC. My wife and I have seen 3 bobcats over the past year; two on the Blue Ridge Parkway and one just outside of Stone Mountain State Park. They were much smaller than your bobcat. I've subscribed... looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
Thats awesome!! love bobcats lol...obliviously! Thanks for subscribing and watching!
It's so beautiful but so sad. The fact that all of them the mother and her juveniles are all have tracking collars. Just shows how endangered they species are!!! So 😭😢😭😢❤️ They even look 😢
Very long ago in East Texas, we had a few on our property They never caused any trouble at all They stayed for years then one day were gone never to be seen again
I've read about that location. I've seen them on 4 different outings so far this year!
Took a picture of one on one of my few trips out. Didn't know what it was until.ingot home and zoomed in, noticed the collar at that point. Should have tried for better shots of it but moved along to see the. Bear that I had just seen.
your awesome man
Great video. I love Alligator wildlife refuge, but I have never seen a bobcat or red wolf. Congrats
thanks!! Doesn't happen very often and they are extremely camouflaged!
Awesome!
I have yet to get to a good wolf photo or video myself , they are here in Ontario Canada you hardly ever see them though
thanks! Best of luck! Hopefully soon for you!
Beautiful animals. But so sad that so few left. #SAVETHEWOLVES
Enjoyed this immensely. Interesting to note the red wolves placed in the Smoky Mountains NP did not thrive and were removed. Your wolves look as if they are doing very well. I wonder if their numbers are growing.
Joe Dougherty they grew quite well till poachers started killing them in the mid 2000s
Da Ha, thanks for that info. The article I read was parasites and lack of food, at least for the pups.
Red wolf was watching me walking my dog the other night. I was terrified!!!
They are here in the gulf of florida they found refuge and safe haven here untouched, I had one right in the yard to next to my house they deserve to live freely without man or gov interference and NC is their home too! The Natives had a connection to the wolves and a mutual respect for these animals and the land living side by side, unlike the gov that came along and sold a lie to have them destroyed as these intelligent wolves posed a threat and challenge to their communist agenda playing out
Yes we are here in NC to beat the panthers
I live like 10 minutes from there
Where in the Alligator river refuge did u go to see them.
These happened to be near the entrance
I wish I could go live in the wild and join a wolf pack.
Great work. That area looks a lot like La. I hope they don’t all get killed. Unreal that protecting these red wolves is even being considered.
Fr like reamber Yellowstone 💀 how ar y’all doing this
Which other Wildlife refuge do you think is also good for the Red Wolves?
Heading there next week. Prolly no chance of catching a glimpse of them but when would be the best time you think to catch them howling?
Also if you know the best area/spot to catch them howling would be awesome.
i went down to N.C. took a male from pack 3 and a female from pack 1
bought them back home to PA
now there's Red Wolf in Montgomery County 🐺
I’m a wild life guy but I’m sorry it doesn’t make sense .. I read they released some and one got hit by a car quick .. what’s that tell you there isn’t enough room for them especially in the east .. roads criss cross most of the USA outside of Alaska
I think we should retire much of our roads, invest in crossings on those that are left, as well as alternative transportation to reduce fragmentation. It's a bigger problem than people think, what's the point in having woods if they're so fragmented wildlife can't thrive. We need to start helping people move west as well, 80% of the country is on the east coast and we have a big ass country.

U need to let them go with out a caller my dog is red wolf. And chayote
