Wildlife officials have collared a dozen gray wolves in Northern California in an effort to better understand and manage the species that has made a comeback in the state after being extirpated a century ago.

The Golden State’s gray wolves were hunted and trapped to extirpation a century ago.

In the 1990s, about seven decades after the last wolf pack was killed in Yellowstone National Park, officials relocated 41 gray wolves to the park.

House voted Tuesday to end federal protection for gray wolves, approving a bill that would remove them from the endangered species list across the lower 48 states.

Roell said the DNR received genetic test results from two laboratories late last week confirming that it was a gray wolf and the agency seized the carcass from the taxidermist earlier this week.
