MEXICO CITY (AP) - Four endangered Mexican gray wolves born at the Mexico City zoo in early May ventured out of their lair Tuesday, charming photographers and passers-by.
The pups scampered, tussled and got a couple of stern, teeth-baring reprimands from their 10-year-old mother, Joy.
The pups' represent the latest success in a program to breed the wolves in captivity — another seven wolves were born at a zoo in the western city of Guadalajara in April — and boost their numbers. There are currently at about 300 in Mexico and the United States, where they are being reintroduced to habitats where they were once roamed.
