A large wolf pack walking down a sandy beach in November—exactly the kind of footage we aim to collect for our pack and population research in winter! 1,491 people have donated today (WOW!) and we only need 9 folks to donate at the link in the comments before the day is done to reach our goal of 1,500 donors to unlock an extra $6,000 for the project’s winter research. We just need a few more generous folks to make a donation of any size to help us reach the finish line tonight! It will be a huge
