🐺Rotate for full effect ⤴️ After a fruitful night of salmon fishing, this coastal wolf, well adapted to the rugged Pacific coastline, heads home.
Unlike mainland wolves, coastal wolves thrive on the abundance of marine resources like salmon, clams, herring eggs, and stranded marine mammals, carving out a unique position in the ecosystem.
One of the defining characteristics of coastal wolf behaviour is their relatively small home ranges compared to their inland counterparts. This is a direct reflection of the abundant food resources available along the coast. With an abundant food supply at their disposal, coastal wolves don’t need to travel as far in search of food. Instead, they can establish smaller, more tightly-knit territories, reducing competition between individuals and allowing them to focus more on raising offspring.
This brings us to another fascinating aspect of coastal wolf ecology: their exceptional pup survival. With access to a consistent and abundant food source, coastal wolf mothers can provide their pups with the nutrition necessary for healthy growth and development. Unlike the harsh realities faced by pups in more resource-limited environments, where competition for food is fierce and mortality rates can be high, coastal wolf pups enjoy a higher likelihood of survival.

On March 23, the killer whale calf known as Kʷiisaḥiʔis (or T109A3A by researchers) became entrapped in a tidal lagoon near Zeballos following the fatal stranding of her mother Spong (T109A3). It has been inspiring to see so many people coming together to root for this young whale in the past weeks.
According to Bay Cetology, Kʷiisaḥiʔis continues to show very little evidence of independent feeding. A subtle depression behind her head was noticed this week indicating that her body mass has started to decline. The decision was made by cetacean experts to attempt to provision her with some harbour seal meat. It has been reported that though Kʷiisaḥiʔis took a few attempts to understand what was happening, she proceeded to consume all 18 kg provided.
Over the last month, a team of individuals from Bay Cetology, Department of Fisheries and Oceans, the Ehattesaht and Nuchatlaht First Nations have been tirelessly dedicated to exploring all potential options to rescue this little whale. At this point all options considered are complex and involve some risk, but last night’s successful provisioning represents a milestone in the continued efforts to save Kʷiisaḥiʔis.
Pacific Wild is expressing immense gratitude to Jared Towers, DFO, the Ehattesaht and Nuchatlaht First Nations and the many others involved for their time, care and dedication toward this challenging situation. For further updates on how to stay involved follow @baycetology 🐋

Words like “aggressive,” “dangerous,” and “conflict” often dominate media headlines and government reports, shaping public perceptions of wildlife, especially large carnivores like bears and wolves. These words instill fear and misunderstanding, unfairly placing blame on animals rather than addressing human behavior and perspectives.
Irrational fears and misconceptions hinder conservation efforts and media sensationalism perpetuates myths and overshadows instances of peaceful coexistence between humans and wildlife. Pacific Wild advocates for a shift toward a compassionate understanding of our wild neighbors. Bears and wolves have individual personalities and exhibit a wide range of different behaviours.
“No conservation effort can succeed without a profound change in our attitudes towards wildlife.” Dr. Gosia Bryja.
We must strive for fairer portrayals in the media and foster empathy for wildlife to ensure their protection and our coexistence.
