;Request:

: I'd like to request the following updates to wolf distribution maps in all of the articles listed (Sources with detailed maps below):

'''Mexican wolf range:'''

The Arizona and New Mexico ranges should expand northward, at least to Highway I-40. This is the farthest north that they are currently allowed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, and individuals often disperse this far.

The Arizona range should be expanded westward toward at least the center of the state, and southward toward the border with Mexico.

The New Mexico range should also be expanded south toward the Mexico border, and eastward toward Highway I-25.

'''Great Lakes Wolf Range:'''

Expanded range southward into Wisconsin

'''Northern Rockies Gray Wolf Range:'''

Expanded range in Wyoming (southward)

Expanded range in Oregon and Washington State (eastward)

Presence in northern California and northern Colorado

'''Sources''':

The updated Mexican Wolf population distribution can be viewed here: https://www.fws.gov/species/mexican-wolf-canis-lupus-baileyi/map

The updated Mexican Wolf Experimental Population Area and Blue Range Recovery Area in the US can be found here: https://www.fws.gov/program/conserving-mexican-wolf/species

This US Federal Government delisting of Gray wolves from 2020 includes up-to-date maps of all wolf distributions and future range to expand in the US: https://www.regulations.gov/document/FWS-HQ-ES-2018-0097-107831

It's a long document, but the updated map I'm referring to is Figure 2: https://img.federalregister.gov/ER03NO20.017/ER03NO20.017_original_size.png

'''Summary'''

Most of the articles listed above contain the same maps (North American Gray Wolf Subspecies Ranges), and would just need to replace that one map in each.

If these maps need to be prioritized, I request that the [[Mexican wolf]] Distribution map take precedence as it requires the greatest update, since the current map shows only two points where they were introduced. However, their present distribution and future range has greatly expanded (see first source).

Thank you for reviewing this request. This is my first time requesting a map update, so I apologize for any unnecessary complexity or missing elements. Please let me know if I can elaborate on anything and/or provide additional sources.

;Discussion:

Aswell, me ([[User:Gimly24]]), would like to request the distributional updates to European wolves. I am currently recensing studies and links in [[Talk:List of gray wolf populations by country]] but I for some countries, I already know what map i would give as source for the updates i would like :

'''Europe''' (2012-2016) : (https://www.lcie.org/Large-carnivores/Wolf-)

The above give a general overlook of the then distribution of wolves in Europe. It expanded considerably since.

'''Austria''' : Map 2020-2021 (https://www.lifewolfalps.eu/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/AUSTRIA_Wolf_monitoring_annual_report_2020-2021_VUW.pdf)

'''Finland''' : Map 2022 (https://luonnonvaratieto.luke.fi/kartat?panel=suurpedot) (Wolf, Territory Boundaries)

'''France''' : Map 2020-2021 (https://www.loupfrance.fr/wp-content/uploads/BILAN_ESTIVAL_2021_3.pdf)

'''Switzerland''' :

* MAP 2016 (https://www.loupfrance.fr/wp-content/uploads/WAG_report_2015_2016_final1.pdf) [I might change the link if i find a newer one]

* MAP 2023 (https://chwolf.org/woelfe-in-der-schweiz/wolfspraesenz/aktuelle-daten)

I will probably edit my comments and perhaps add some articles pages to the above comments by @[[User:Bbreslau]] later.

Thank you very much.
