NCWRA wolves and wolf-hybrids arrive from all directions and of all ages. NCWRA may get a call from Defenders of Wildlife, the SPCA, Animal Control, or directly from people who have them in captivity who can no longer care for them. "After NCWRA locates them NCWRA nurses them back to health, socialize them, they become people friendly, and NCWRA then adopt them out to private homes that can care for them," Sam Blake said. "Releasing them back into the wild is no longer a viable option; they must live in captivity or die."

Raider, the resident Alpha male, or leader of the pack, was rescued by Sam Blake about five years ago after he was shot and left to die in the foothills. A bullet was removed from his head, and he seemed to be recovering until he developed a cough. X-rays later showed a cluster of buckshot lodged in his chest cavity, which punctured a lung and caused it to collapse. Raider ultimately lost his battle to survive and passed away May 2003.
