Adventures in Upstate NY: Sleep near wolves, bears at Adirondack Wildlife Refuge (video) (transplants)

"When an animal gets injured in the Adirondacks, where does it go?

Many wounded animals won’t survive in the wilderness, unable to fight predators or hunt for food. Some will heal on their own. But a small number of animals will arrive at the Adirondack Wildlife Refuge, a nonprofit organization and education center dedicated to wildlife rescue.

Wildlife rehabilitators Steve and Wendy Hall run the refuge along the Ausable River, with wolves, bears and coyotes among their varied collection of wildlife."

Saw lots of wildlife during my brief visit to the Adirondacks this summer: A Black bear family with young cub crossing one of the major roads, plentiful wild turkeys just off to the side of same roads, deers not too far off the more rural roads, and probably many more we missed.

I also noticed more folks visiting the Adirondacks this summer, and have been told that houses are selling like wildfire in certain regions. I hope all these new visitors and transplants drive with a heightened awareness of the local wildlife that abounds in the area, to prevent sending even more injured animals to this organization.

Uhhhhh, I don’t think wolves are officially in NY state.
