Food for the 25 wolves at the sanctuary comes from neighbor ing farms. Kuntz explained far mers are more than willing to donate dead cattle to the project. “You’d be surprised how many cows die around here,” he said. “So far, feeding the wolves has been the least of our prob lems.” Investigations following re ported incidents have usually found the culprit was a wolf-dog or wolf-coyote cross, Kuntz said. He said an ultimate goal of Wolf Haven is to re-introduce wolves into the wild where they numbered in the millions dur ing the early 1800s. Now the total wolf population in the lower 48 states is about 1,200, Kuntz said, with another 10,000 estimated in Canada and Alaska. Calendar goes up j. iu, 1 ;
