Those of us here at LightHawk are honored to be able to assist the Species Survival Plan members in their efforts on behalf of Mexican Wolf recovery. As I write, Tom and his co-pilot Janice Newman are flying over southern Indiana at 20,000 feet and 266 mph with three National Zoo wolves on their way to New Mexico.
What a cool organization - thanks for all you do!
Keep up the great work and have a safe flight!
that is a cool
Hi Maggie, Josh !
F749 comes to WCC for recreation from an ordeal.
Will she be a companion of "my" wolves? Rebecca or Spencer should know what means "my". M575 and F516 are very friendly, calm, not aggressive. After spaying F516 will accept with presence of F749, I hope so.
At 2:45 EST today (Tuesday 22) # 749 is safely loaded on her private jet. She's flying over southern Nebraska at 27,000 feet and 349 mph accompanied by her handler and the experienced LightHawk volunteer flight crew. We expect an on-time arrival.
Excellent! Hope it's a nice smooth flight. Thanks for the update!
