Habitat Types for Gray Wolves<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The gray wolf population in Oregon is predominantly centered in the northeast corner of Oregon and reaching into Idaho, with smaller populations scattered around central Oregon. The species can also be found living in places like Yellowstone, Alaska, and some areas of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Montana. The typical habitat of the gray wolf is the tundra, woodland and forests, grasslands, or deserts (National Wildlife Federation). Over the years, the gray wolf population in the pacific northwest, more specifically Oregon, was rapidly declining, leaving the species listed as \u201cendangered.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
