Lone Wolf
In 1982 through 1994, the grey wolf was listed as vulnerable to extinction by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Changes in legal protections, land-use and population shifts to urban areas have stopped the decline in wolf population. Additionally, recolonization and reintroduction programs have increased wolf populations in Western Europe and the western United States. As a result, in 1996, the IUCN reduced the risk status of the gray wolf to being of least concern. Today, the conservational status of wolves varies greatly. They are protected in some areas, hunted for sport in others, or may be subject to extermination as perceived threats to livestock and pets.
Despite not being at risk for extinction any longer, local populations of wolves are still threatened.
A portion of the proceeds from these endangered animals cards and prints will go to the World Wildlife Fund.
This is a 5×7 marker, pencil, and chalk pastel on 60 lb. illustration paper.
There will be a total of nine (maybe more) 5×7 inch pastels. Each of the originals is for sale for $350 (matted plus shipping) with $100 of that going to the World Wildlife Fund. If you are interested in the originals please e-mail me at: hinkleart@charter.net
