WDFW Range Map

The Salmo Pack’s range straddles the border between Washington, Idaho, and Canada, and they are known to spend significant amounts of time in British Columbia.

There was one radio-collared wolf in the Salmo Pack in 2016, with the family totaling three wolves. The family had at least five members at the end of 2017.

At the end of 2018, the pack had three wolves and was not counted as a successful breeding pair for the year. The 2019 annual survey confirmed at least four wolves in the pack, but no pups were confirmed.

A minimum of three wolves were counted in the 2020 annual survey, but unfortunately, the pack did not have a confirmed breeding pair once again.

In 2021, there were three wolves in the pack, and in 2022, there were two. In 2023, there were once again two wolves in the pack.

The pack dissolved in 2024 with only one wolf maintaining the territory and no breeding pair.
