The border is within this range of habitat.]]> 2021-03-03 19:19:56 UTC https://padlet.com/britchey0189/vnfzf9ifyh0uaxcb/wish/1265633426 Diet britchey0189 https://padlet.com/britchey0189/vnfzf9ifyh0uaxcb/wish/1265649300 This wolf is a devout vegan...is what I would say if it was April's Fools Day! They eat "elf, mule, white-tailed deer, pronghorn, javelina, rabbits, and other small mammals", being carnivores.

They will hunt wherever they are currently living (see "Where does it live" post for more info).]]> 2021-03-03 19:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/britchey0189/vnfzf9ifyh0uaxcb/wish/1265649300 Where does it cross the border wall? britchey0189 https://padlet.com/britchey0189/vnfzf9ifyh0uaxcb/wish/1265853388 There is a wide range of where the Mexican gray wolf crosses. It crosses New Mexico, Texas, and Arizona. Most of the border wall covers a large part of Arizona and New Mexico, with it also covering a little part of Texas.]]> 2021-03-03 20:04:57 UTC https://padlet.com/britchey0189/vnfzf9ifyh0uaxcb/wish/1265853388 What problems does the border wall pose? britchey0189 https://padlet.com/britchey0189/vnfzf9ifyh0uaxcb/wish/1265880004 Genetic Pool: The Mexican gray wolf is an endangered species with very few wolves left in its population. This creates a genetic pool problem, with there only being 2 small groups, one found in the U.S. and one found in Mexico. It is best to have these 2 groups eventually breed to help with the repopulation efforts. A wolf named M1425 once was able to cross the Mexican-American border, however now with the border wall it can't. This means that the 2 groups will experience very little genetic diversity if nothing is done, especially M1425's group which only has 30 members. If there is no genetic diversity genetic disorders will occur with more susceptibility to diseases.
