“It’s devastating to them both financially and emotionally. The losses “can be really emotionally devastating to a rancher,” Wilbur said. Instead, it’s individual operations that tend to suffer disproportionate losses, according to Wilbur and Flick. With so few wolves in California, the threat wolves pose to livestock isn’t widespread. “So there’s always that concern in the back of a rancher’s mind, about the loss of cattle or the injury of cattle from a wolf.” “The thought in every rancher’s mind, in the territory that a wolf is coming through, is ‘I hope they don’t attack my herd,’” said Kirk Wilbur, vice president of government affairs for the California Cattlemen’s Assn.

It’s unknown if the lost signal is due to a technical issue, such as a dead battery or him being out of satellite detection range - or if he has met an unfortunate fate, said Flick, who added that she became concerned for his well-being as he traveled farther away from where other wolves have lived in contemporary times.Īnd his chances of meeting a mate so far afield are close to zero. Before the signal went dark, he was tracked in San Luis Obispo County - marking the first time in more than a century that a wolf was hanging out on California’s Central Coast.
