  • Washington Gray Wolf Conservation and Management 2016 Annual Report
    WASHINGTON GRAY WOLF CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT 2016 ANNUAL REPORT A cooperative effort by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Confederated Colville Tribes, Spokane Tribe of Indians, USDA-APHIS Wildlife Services, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Photo: WDFW This report presents information on the status, distribution, and management of wolves in the State of Washington from January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016. This report may be copied and distributed as needed. Suggested Citation: Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Confederated Colville Tribes, Spokane Tribe of Indians, USDA-APHIS Wildlife Services, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 2017. Washington Gray Wolf Conservation and Management 2016 Annual Report. Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Colville, WA, USA. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Gray wolves (Canis lupus) were classified as an endangered species in Washington under the provisions of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) in 1973. In 2011, wolves in the eastern third of Washington were removed from federal protections under the ESA. Wolves in the western two- thirds of Washington continue to be protected under the ESA and are classified as an endangered species under federal law. In December 2011, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) Commission formally adopted the Wolf Conservation and Management Plan to guide recovery and management of gray wolves as they naturally recolonize the State of Washington. At present, wolves are classified as an endangered species under state law (WAC 232-12-014) throughout Washington regardless of federal status. Washington is composed of three recovery areas which include Eastern Washington, the Northern Cascades, and the Southern Cascades and Northwest Coast.

  • Northeastern Coyote/Coywolf Taxonomy and Admixture: a Meta-Analysis
    Way and Lynn Northeastern coyote taxonomy Copyright © 2016 by the IUCN/SSC Canid Specialist Group. ISSN 1478-2677 Synthesis Northeastern coyote/coywolf taxonomy and admixture: A meta-analysis Jonathan G. Way1* and William S. Lynn2 1 Eastern Coyote Research, 89 Ebenezer Road, Osterville, MA 02655, USA. Email [email protected] 2 Marsh Institute, Clark University, Worcester, MA 01610, USA. Email [email protected] * Correspondence author Keywords: Canis latrans, Canis lycaon, Canis lupus, Canis oriens, cladogamy, coyote, coywolf, eastern coyote, eastern wolf, hybridisation, meta-analysis, northeastern coyote, wolf. Abstract A flurry of recent papers have attempted to taxonomically characterise eastern canids, mainly grey wolves Canis lupus, eastern wolves Canis lycaon or Canis lupus lycaon and northeastern coyotes or coywolves Canis latrans, Canis latrans var. or Canis latrans x C. lycaon, in northeastern North America. In this paper, we performed a meta-analysis on northeastern coyote taxonomy by comparing results across studies to synthesise what is known about genetic admixture and taxonomy of this animal. Hybridisation or cladogamy (the crossing between any given clades) be- tween coyotes, wolves and domestic dogs created the northeastern coyote, but the animal now has little genetic in- put from its parental species across the majority of its northeastern North American (e.g. the New England states) range except in areas where they overlap, such as southeastern Canada, Ohio and Pennsylvania, and the mid- Atlantic area. The northeastern coyote has roughly 60% genetic influence from coyote, 30% wolf and 10% domestic dog Canis lupus familiaris or Canis familiaris. There is still disagreement about the amount of eastern wolf versus grey wolf in its genome, and additional SNP genotyping needs to sample known eastern wolves from Algonquin Pro- vincial Park, Ontario to verify this.

Corresponding editor: Bridgett vonHoldt Abstract The taxonomic status of the red wolf (Canis rufus) is heavily debated, but could be clarified by examining historic specimens from the southeastern United States. We analyzed mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from 3 ancient (350–1900 year olds) putative wolf samples excavated from middens at Louisiana State University on June 17, 2016 and sinkholes within the historic red wolf range. We detected 3 unique mtDNA haplotypes, which grouped with the coyote mtDNA clade, suggesting that the canids inhabiting southeastern North America prior to human colonization from Europe were either coyotes, which would vastly expand historic coyote distributions, an ancient coyote–wolf hybrid, or a North American evolved red wolf lineage related to coyotes. Should the red wolf prove to be a distinct species, our results support the idea of either an ancient hybrid origin for red wolves or a shared common ancestor between coyotes and red wolves.

  • COSSARO Candidate V, T, E Species Evaluation Form
    Ontario Species at Risk Evaluation Report for Algonquin Wolf (Canis sp.), an evolutionarily significant and distinct hybrid with Canis lycaon, C. latrans, and C. lupus ancestry Committee on the Status of Species at Risk in Ontario (COSSARO) Assessed by COSSARO as THREATENED January 2016 Final Loup Algonquin (Canis sp.) Le loup Algonquin (Canis sp.) est un canidé de taille intermédiaire qui vit en meute familiale et qui se nourrit de proies comme le castor, le cerf de Virginie et l’orignal. Le loup Algonquin est le fruit d’une longue tradition d’hybridation et de rétrocroisement entre le loup de l’Est (Canis lycaon) (appelé aussi C. lupus lycaon), le loup gris (C. lupus) et le coyote (C. latrans). Bien qu’il fasse partie d’un complexe hybride répandu, le loup Algonquin peut se différencier des autres hybrides, comme le loup boréal des Grands Lacs, parce qu’il forme une grappe discrète, sur le plan génétique, composée d’individus étroitement apparentés à partir de laquelle il est possible de faire des estimations de filiation présumée. De plus, selon les données morphologiques, il est généralement plus grand que les canidés de type C. latrans et plus petit que les canidés de type C. lupus, bien qu’une identification fiable nécessite des données génotypiques. En Ontario, le loup Algonquin est principalement confiné dans le parc provincial Algonquin ainsi que dans les régions avoisinantes, dont certaines sont protégées. Ces régions englobent le parc provincial Killarney au sud de la région caractéristique des Hautes-Terres de Kawartha. Les relevés plus éloignés sont relativement rares et vraisemblablement attribuables à des incidents de dispersion occasionnels sur de grandes distances.

Sochi was selected as the host city in July 2007, during the 119th IOC Session held in Guatemala City . It was the first Olympics in Russia since the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991. The Soviet Union was previously the host nation for the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow . A total of 98 events in fifteen winter sport disciplines were held during the Games. A number of new competitions—a total of twelve ac- counting for gender—were held during the Games, including biathlon mixed relay, women's ski jumping , mixed-team figure skating , mixed-team luge , half- pipe skiing, ski and snowboard slopestyle , and snowboard parallel slalom . The events were held around two clusters of new venues: an Olympic Park constructed in Sochi's Imeretinsky Valley on the coast of the Black Sea , with Fisht Olympic Stadium , and the Games' indoor venues located within walking distance, and snow events in the resort settlement of Krasnaya Polyana . The 2014 Winter Olympics were the most expensive Olympics in history. While origi- nally budgeted at US$12 billion, various factors caused the budget to expand to US$51 billion, which is more than three times the cost of the Olympics in London and surpassing the estimated $44 billion cost of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.
