TRUCKEE, Calif. \u2013 Truckee Police are making the community aware of wolf activity in the region. <\/p>\n

According to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife\u2019s Wolf Tracker map, wolf activity registered in the Floriston\/ Hirschdale area on Monday morning, Feb. 2. <\/p>\n

Truckee Police raised alerts Sunday when the wolf activity registered in the Tahoe Donner\/Truckee area. <\/p>\n

The department encourages the public to remain alert and take the following precautions:<\/p>\n

Pet owners should closely supervise pets, especially during early morning and evening hours<\/p>\n

Livestock owners should take appropriate measures to protect animals<\/p>\n

Do not approach, feed, or attempt to harass wildlife<\/p>\n

Over a year ago, a pack of wolves were confirmed<\/a> 50 miles north of Lake Tahoe. The department has seen a consistent presence of wolves in California since 2016. Gray wolves returned to the state naturally after populations were re-introduced in Yellowstone and central Idaho in the nineties. <\/p>\n

The Sierra Sun has reached out to CDFW for more specifics on the wolf or wolves passing through the area and will provide an update.<\/p>\n

Reporting wolf observations helps wildlife officials track movement and support informed public safety decisions. <\/p>\n

Observations, photographs or videos can be reported and submitted directly to the CDFW through its Wildlife Incident Reporting (WIR) website<\/a> or through the Wildlife Hotline, (916) 358-2917.<\/p>\n
