OR-7 Checks In (With Help From Human Friends)

Oregon State University

He's so famous, he doesn't even need a name: OR-7, Oregon's wandering wolf.

And California's, now and then.  The wolf also known as "Journey" continues to cover many miles around the region, his collar allowing wildlife experts to track his progress on both sides of the state line. 

He might be getting bored... there are just no opportunities to find mates in OR-7's recent territory. 

Oregon Fish and Wildlife Wolf Program Coordinator Russ Morgan visits to talk about the wolf's travels and future prospects.
