Did you know New Mexico’s wolf population has been slowly growing over the past decade? After decades of population reduction, the number of Mexican gray wolves dwindled down to just a few dozen spread across New Mexico and Arizona.

While coming across one of these wolves would be an extremely rare experience—currently, there are a mere 132 spread across the two states—you can see these majestic animals at the Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary.
