    California has three new confirmed gray wolf packs: the Ashpan, Ishi, and Tunnison packs. These new packs bring the total number of known gray wolf packs in California to 10. The Ashpan and Ishi packs each consist of at least two uncollared wolves, while the Tunnison pack has two wolves, one with a non-functioning collar. All three packs have been involved in livestock depredation incidents in 2025.
