Wolves born in captivity are important to the recovery of the Mexican Grey Wolves in the wild. Do not feel sorrow for those who live in captivity, as they are cared for and provided a cushy life for their contribution to the survival of the species. We are privileged to be able to see them, and grow to love them. Many zoos and centers are dedicated to their welfare, and sponsor cross fostering programs for puppies to ensure future generations. The patience it took to see these puppies emerge from the den in a captive environment was well worth the time spent waiting when nothing seemed to be happening. The thrill of seeing something rare is the reward.
