Become a voice for wolves. Sign up for the Oregon Wild Wolf Pack.
Gray wolves (Canis lupus) were once common in Oregon, occupying most of the state. However, a deliberate effort to eradicate the species was successful by the 1940s.
Oregon Wild offers reward for conviction of wolf killer!
Trouble for the wolf began in 1843, sixteen years before Oregon became a state, when the first wolf bounty was established. In 1913, people capitalizing on wolf bounties could collect a State of Oregon bounty of $5 and an Oregon State Game Commission bounty of $20. The last record of a paid wolf bounty was in 1946.
