Details

One bracelet. One big mission

• 10% of profits donated AZA Safe: Saving Animals from Extinction Red Wolf who help protect and restore the Red Wolf population in North Carolina. Fall's goal is to help support their mission to conserve, research, and raise awareness for this important species.
• Sizing: Elastic, one size fits most

How It Works

• Tracked via GPS collar
• This animal’s safety guarded with the Fahlo Protection Ping™

Every Fahlo tracking experience includes the Fahlo Protection Ping™. This indicates each animal’s unique path may be live, delayed, or historical based on required safety protocol in accordance with our nonprofit partners.

While the experience of following an animal’s journey remains the same for you, we work behind the scenes with our partners to ensure this experience is presented in a way that keeps the animals safe, one step or splash at a time.

** The Red Wolf tracking experience uses representative historical data provided by our partner AZA SAFE: Saving Animals From Extinction Red Wolf. This is necessary for the safety of the fewer than 20 individuals remaining in the wild. Because they are so exceptionally protected, the Red Wolves we are able to follow are no longer living in the wild population. We choose to honor their lives and legacies to grow awareness for the world’s most endangered wolf, and to continue to support vital conservation efforts to restore the species.

FAQ's

Why are Red Wolves being tracked?

• “Tracking Red Wolves allows scientists to monitor and gather accurate data on population dynamics, preferred habitats, home ranges, and movement, which helps provide protective measures for their success in the wild. It allows for several key management actions that are critical to the recovery of Red Wolves, such as finding wild dens, fostering pups, determining the cause of deaths, knowing which Red Wolves are paired, placing Red Wolves in acclimation pens to create new breeding pairs, and more. Mark Twain said, “Supposing is good, but finding out is better.”
  

How are American Red Wolves being tracked?

• “Red Wolves wear orange radio collars that transmit by VHF (very high frequency) and/or GPS (global positioning system). Each animal’s radio collar has a unique frequency that transmits a signal allowing them to be located. VHF tracking involves using directional antennae to listen for a signal given off by a transmitter in the radio collar. The operator rotates the antennae until they can determine which direction the signal is coming from the loudest. That process is repeated from at least 3 different locations, allowing the operator to put together the direction of the signal from each spot and accurately determine the Red Wolf’s location.  GPS radio collars transmit the location of the Red Wolf via satellites on a set schedule, and biologists can then view that data.”

Does tracking harm the Red Wolves?

• “Tracking does not harm the Red Wolves and enhances their chance for survival in the wild.”
