<span class="mw-page-title-main">Repopulation of wolves in California</span> Natural resettlement of wolves into California, US

In late December 2011, OR-7, a male gray wolf from Oregon, became the first confirmed wild wolf in California since 1924, when wolves were considered extirpated from the state. The first resident wolf pack was confirmed in 2015, after two adults migrated from Oregon and had five pups. Since then more wolves have entered the state and their population has grown. As of November 2024 there have been ten wolf packs in the state since OR-7's entry. It is likely that more wolves are dispersing undetected through portions of their historic habitat in California.
