OR-7
OR-7, also known as Journey, is a male gray wolf that was electronically tracked in Oregon and California in the United States. He was the first confirmed wolf in western Oregon since 1947, and the first in California since 1924. After the wolf left his pack in northeastern Oregon in September 2011, he wandered more than through Oregon and Northern California.
By 2014, OR-7 had returned to the Rogue River watershed in the southern Cascade Range east of Medford, Oregon, with a mate. It is not known when the two wolves met but DNA tests of fecal samples show that she is related to wolves in two of the eight packs in northeastern Oregon. In early 2015, officials designated the two adult wolves and their offspring the ''Rogue Pack'', the first wolf pack in western Oregon and the state's ninth overall since contemporary wolves entered Oregon from Idaho in the 1990s. The batteries in OR-7's tracking collar expired in October 2015, and future tracking of the pack will depend on trail cameras and live sightings.
==Background==
Wolves were reintroduced into the Northern Rocky Mountains in the 1990s. In February 2011, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife attached radio collars to several wolves in the Imnaha Pack in northeastern Oregon to allow study of their migration. The pack was Oregon's first wolf pack since wolves were reintroduced in the state. The wolves were numbered; one of them, a year-old male, was given the code OR-7 as the seventh wolf to be collared.〔
