In 1980, the red wolf was declared extinct in the wild. Breeding programs conducted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have brought the animal back. There are thirty-eight places in the United States that conduct captive breeding programs, but the only place in the world where red wolves roam in the wild is in eastern North Carolina on the 1.7-million acre Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge. Daniel discusses the Red Wolf Howling Safari, a two-hour program conducted on Wednesday nights in the summer and on special nights the rest of the year. The wolves are never seen, but sometimes they will howl back at their human imitators.
