On Christmas day in 2024, the tragedy hit the Junction Batt Wolf Pack of Yelostone. The group’s legendary one-eye leader, Wolf 907F, died after a confrontation with a rival pack. Now, in a new video, the junction Butt is hunting the bison with members of the rival pack – although unsuccessful.

The mother placed her body between the calf and hungry wolves until the pair caught with the rest of the group. Another adult bison then helped the mother fight the wolves, which ended the hunting attempt.
The video suggests that the junction is back with full force after losing the Wolf Pack Wolf 907F – thanks to some wolves who helped kill her.

Junction Batt Wolf Pack made headlines under the permanent leadership of Wolf 907F. “Queen of wolves” gave birth Record 10 liters of puppies And most of the yellowstone wolves live more than twice – more than 11 years, compared to the average lifetime of up to five years.
Wolf 907F died Started on 22 December 2024. The rival rescue Creek Pack Wolf was set to 907F and some of its packs – it was divided at the time – while they were fed on a bison carcass north side of the Yelostone River. Rescue Creek Pack Junction began as an offshoot of Butt Pack and generally lived to the south of the river. But this time, he opted to cross and attack the junction butt. Wolves rarely die of old age in the wild, and in the Yelostone National Park, they are often killed in regional clashes with other wolves.
“In a protected place like Yelostone, there is a reason for their number-death when two packs fight with each other,” Kira CassidiA researcher at the Yelostone Wolf Project reported Live Science last year, after Wolf 907F, her record-breaking was 10th waste. “He is responsible for almost half the mortality,” he said.
Wolf 907F rescue was badly injured in a clash with a creek pack, and his radio collar figures suggest that he died on 25 December. He died after not coming out of the park for a long time, where people shot and killed two other members of his pack.
In January, the researchers saw some rescue creek pack men with the remaining junction butt pack women. At that time, Cassidi told National park explorer That wolf begins in sexual intercourse in February and it was likely that some wolves would convert packs into a mate.
Pack Rescue Creek Pack is being completed again with men, Cowboy State Daily said. Wolves have failed to kill the bison in the video, but taking a bison down is not an easy task. The video shows that adult bison can do a fight and will hesitate himself and his flock fiercely.
