Breeding plans do not seem to be in the works in CA. I'm fine with a patient approach and lack of rush by the government to intervene in the wolf's natural breeding efforts. As previously discussed, the politics are messy in Northern CA, as they are in Oregon, and in the northern Rockies. The possibility of more gray wolves in CA is intriguing, and I wouldn't mind hearing about natural interbreeding with similar species either. Who's afraid of the big bad wolf? Some problems will arise and be worked out to some extent. Whatever shall be shall be. It is a cool story to follow. If wolves were in immediate danger of extinction in the West, I'd be more concerned about OR-7 succeeding in being more than an apparently single part time resident of California.
