Endangered
wolf pups born
in South Salem

e Wolf Conservation Center in South Salem was howling with
excitement last month, when Trumpet, one of its endangered Mexican
gray wolves, gave birth to a litter of ve.

One of the newborn pups, born April 26, is to be released back into
the wild, and was own to Arizona on May 9. She was placed in the
Sa el wild wolf pack, where the breeding female had just given birth
to her own litter.

e Wolf Conservation Center describes it as cross-fostering, which
is a coordinated event where captive-born pups are introduced into a
similar-aged wild litter to be raised by surrogate (basically substitute)
parents.

“Trumpet’s pup is part of the critical e ort to save her imperiled spe-
cies,” said Maggie Howell, executive director of the Wolf Conservation
Center. “At just two pounds, she’s a North American superhero! She’s
become a living, breathing part of the southwestern landscape, and her
story will help raise awareness for Mexican gray wolves and the active
e orts to save them.”

e Wolf Conservation Center is one of more than 50 institutions in
the U.S. and Mexico participating in the Mexican Wolf Species Sur-
vival Plan a bi-national initiative, the primary purpose of which is to
support the reestablishment of Mexican wolves in the wild through
captive breeding, public education, and research.

behind the net.
“We came out strong,” said
North Salem’s Grace Curran, and PHOTOS: DEENA BELL
led 1-0 at the outset of the May
22 Sectional nal matchup at Fox
Lane.

Unfortunately, the ve goals by
Isabel Sondy and four by Anneke
Pulkkinen,Bronxville made Colleen
McCarthy’s score a distant memory
by the time the 18-3 nal was
posted. e disappointment was
evident on coach Amanda Heyde’s
face afterwards, but getting this far
wasn’t the only thing unexpected
for the rst-year coach.

“I’ve never coached a team like
this,” said Heyde. “ ey are a fun
group of girls who know how have
a good time and work hard at the
same time.”

But it wasn’t enough on this day,
especially when Bronxville didn’t
leave much margin for error.

“ ey’re super fast and never
drop the ball,” said Heyde.

Still, owning the rst seed didn’t
have Bronxville Coach Sharon
Robinson calling the game a
gimme.

“ ey beat three teams on the
road to get here,” said Robinson.
“ at takes a lot of guts.”

e score didn’t change
Robinson’s appreciation for the
Tigers’ mettle either.

“ ey play hard and never give
up,” said Robinson.

e Tigers showed that mettle
to start the second half, despite the

to secure the draw and got the ball
to her running mate. at would
be Curran, and the North Salem
crowd got to gasp one last time as
the senior captain found the back
of the net.

e overall disappointment
didn’t have the captain hanging her
head, though.

“I’m just proud because no one
expected us to go this far,” said
Curran who looks forward to
playing at Rutgers next year.

e loss seemed like it was
already felt by Heyde, but she also
chose to see the upside.

“I feel lucky that I got to coach
her at least one year,” said Heyde.

At the same time, Heyde knows
North Salem has a good core to
help ll Curran shoes and today’s
loss can only help the Tigers get
their ll next year.

“ e experience of being here
will make them more hungry next
year,” she concluded.
