Trail Cam Captures Colorado’s Newest Wolf Pack — With Pups!

August 7, 2025

It’s a heartening update from the wilds of Colorado - there are new wolf pups on the scene and three newly recognized wolf packs!

Colorado Parks and Wildlife recently shared a “pup-date,” confirming that several wolf pairs have successfully reproduced. While pups have been spotted at some dens, the total number hasn’t been confirmed yet.

We recognize wolf packs only after a breeding pair has reproduced. While our staff have seen pups at some dens, the total pup count for all of the packs has not been confirmed. pic.twitter.com/a2rVkMz8PP

In Colorado, a wolf pack is officially recognized once a breeding pair has pups—so these additions mark an exciting milestone for the state’s growing wolf population.

Nature is thriving, and we love to see it.
