Mexican wolf

Request

Requesting a map that more accurately reflects the Mexican wolf's range as of 2023.

The current map on the Mexican wolf Wikipedia page shows only small points at the population centers.

However, an updated map should reflect that the wolves now range across a broad swath of western New Mexico and Eastern Arizona.

A reference map of the 2023 Mexican wolf range can be found here: https://img.federalregister.gov/EP17FE23.001/EP17FE23.001_original_size.png

This source is the US Federal Register, using data from the US Fish and Wildlife Service: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/02/17/2023-03196/endangered-and-threatened-wildlife-and-plants-establishment-of-a-nonessential-experimental

An additional reference map from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service shows the entire Mexican Wolf Recovery Area. This could also be included in the map to show where the wolves will likely expand in the coming years: https://www.fws.gov/media/mexican-wolf-experimental-pop-area-map

@Bbreslau: I can help you, but first I need to know that you will be available here to support me with your knowledge and for proofreading etc? --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:20, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi, sure thing. I’m happy to proofread it. I appreciate your help! Bbreslau (talk) 12:25, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

 Request taken by --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:42, 16 December 2023 (UTC).

@Bbreslau

1. Which areas in this map?
2. What do you want me to use in this map?

--always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:47, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

From the first map, can you use the black section? It’s labeled on the key as “Current range of the Mexican wolf subspecies (Canis lupus baileyi)”.

From this map, can you add the lines that represent the Wolf Management Zone Boundaries and the 2015 Mexican Wolf Experimental Population Area? These lines are shown in the key at the bottom left.

Thank you Bbreslau (talk) 19:29, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

@Bbreslau Please always ping me, thanks.

You didn't tell me what to use in this link, I don't know which map or what? --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 11:59, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: I apologize for the confusion. There is nothing specific in this link that needs to be directly used in the map. I only included this link for literary reference, to scientifically validate the map. Bbreslau (talk) 12:04, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Bbreslau Thanks, this is just to determine the overall area of the map, is this fine, otherwisw tell me which. --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:12, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en Yes, this is perfect for the overall map area. Thank you, Bbreslau (talk) 12:15, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en, I also forgot to clarify: In addition to the black area I requested in the first map, can you also keep the southern point that was used the original map (Canis_lupus_baileyi_range.png), referring to Mexico's population? As far as I know, this southern population is about the same as it was. Thank you, Bbreslau (talk) 12:19, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Bbreslau Draft to be checked. --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:48, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en The map looks great! A few requests:

1. Can you remove the small part of the range that extends north of the 2015 population area boundary?
2. Can you change the label of the blue boundary to "Wolf Management Zone 1"?
3. Can you add and label the boundary for "Wolf Management Zone 2" as outlined in this map?
4. Can you add "(Wolf Management Zone 3)" to the label "2015 Mexican Wolf Experimental Population Area"?

Thank you again for doing this, Bbreslau (talk) 16:55, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Bbreslau For 3., do you mean the dashed greenish area? --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:11, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en for request number 3, I'm referring to the solid line that passes through the labels for highways 40, 93, 60/89,10, and 19 in the west, and through 81, 146, 10, 26, 25, 70, 54, 506, 24, and 285 in the east. This is labeled as "Wolf Management Zone 2" on the map. The same boundary is visible in this other map, outlining the blue area of Zone 2, if that helps for clarification.

Thank you, Bbreslau (talk) 17:19, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

@Bbreslau I'm not allowed to view that link.

Draft 2, feedback. --always ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 13:05, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en I approve! This is exactly what I was hoping for in the request. Thank you very much, Bbreslau (talk) 13:15, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

I've made a few Iranian location maps: I'm not sure if I have the time to but if someone wants to please email me to get the map data (it's very difficult to access from the NCC). – Isochrone (T) 13:03, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
