Rare Pups Born at Zoo in New York
Not many of us can say that we have seen a real wolf. Even fewer of us can say we have seen a Red Wolf. But thanks to the Trevor Zoo at Millbrook School many of us can join the "I Have Seen a Wolf Club" at least on nursery cam.
This past week the Trevor Zoo in Millbrook, New York shared some exciting news. On May 3rd they shared that a Red Wolf named Flora had given birth to puppies. Red Wolves are rare and having them born in captivity is amazing.

Getting to see Wolves up close like this in their own dens is pretty special so it is great that the zoo has set up this opportunity. The page that is dedicated to the Red Wolves at Millbrook.org says that the Red Wolves are one of 11 endangered species that call the Trevor Zoo home. A total of 8 Red Wolves live at the zoo.
