Within Areas of Known Wolf Activity (AKWA) certain preventative measures are recommended to minimize wolf-livestock conflicts. Though not required, non-lethal measures are important to reduce depredation. If depredation becomes chronic and lethal control become necessary, ODFW’s ability to lethally remove depredating wolves will be dependent on the extent that non-lethal measures have been used and documented.

The Black Pines Pack also spends time in Union County. See Union County AKWA for more information.
April 15, 2024 – No reproduction was documented by the Cornucopia Pack in 2023. Only one wolf was documented in the pack area during the winter count.
April 18, 2023 – No reproduction was documented by the Cornucopia Pack in 2022. Two wolves were documented during the winter count and were not counted as a breeding pair.
April 19, 2022 – In 2021, the Cornucopia Pack breeding female produced three pups that survived to the end of the year. The pack was not counted as a breeding pair since no breeding male was documented in the pack during or at the end of 2021.
April 21, 2021 – In 2020, the Cornucopia Pack produced at least two pups that survived to the end of the year, but was not counted as a breeding pair as the breeding male did not survive to the end of the year. Radio-collar data showed a 166 mi² use area with 81% of location data points on public lands and 19% on private lands.
April 15, 2020 – The breeding male and female of the Cornucopia Pack bred for the first time in 2019. The breeding female is a radio-collared disperser from the Pine Creek Pack, and the breeding male is a radio-collared disperser from the Walla Walla Pack. The pair produced three pups that survived to the end of the year and was counted as a breeding pair. Radio-collar data showed a 162mi² use area in the Pine Creek and Keating WMUs with 92% of location data points on public lands. The remaining 8% were on private lands.

April 18, 2023 – Five wolves were documented in the Lookout Mountain Pack during the winter count. No breeding adult wolves were present so the group did not count as a breeding pair.
April 19, 2022 – Due to chronic depredation activities, eight wolves from the Lookout Mountain Pack were lethally removed in fall 2021. The remaining wolves for the pack included the breeding female and one juvenile; an adult male joined during the winter. This pack was not counted as a breeding pair.
April 21, 2021 – The breeding male and female of the Lookout Mountain Pack bred for the first time in 2020. The pair produced two pups that survived to the end of the year and was counted as a breeding pair. Radio-collar data showed a 216 mi² use area with 80% of location data points on private lands and 20% on public lands.
April 15, 2020 – The collared disperser left the area in December. Resident wolf activity was confirmed during the winter count.
June 14, 2019 – A new AKWA has been designated by ODFW in the eastern portion of the Lookout Mountain Unit (Baker County). A collared disperser from the Middle Fork Pack moved into the area in late April. Two additional uncollared wolves were documented with him in early June.
April 8, 2019 - OR37 was not documented during 2018, so this AKWA is discontinued.
April 12, 2018 – OR37’s radio-collar failed in 2016, but he has been documented on trail cameras in the Lookout Mt. WMU in 2017.
April 10, 2017 – OR37 was a resident in the Lookout Mt Unit, but his radio collar failed in July 2016. Remote camera photographs continued to show him to be alone in December 2016.
April 26, 2016 – OR37, an adult male, was radio collared in January 2016. He crossed the Snake River to Idaho within 3 weeks, and later returned to Oregon at the end of March. He has since used the area shown on the AKWA map and appears to be alone.
