SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) - State biologists have confirmed a second wolf pack in Washington state, this time in a remote area of Pend Oreille County.

The Spokesman-Review reports biologists were able to confirm the presence of at least one adult wolf and three pups by playing digital recordings of howling. The wolves, then, howled back.

Motion-detection cameras had captured photos of the pack earlier this year, but biologists needed confirmation of their presence.

Gray wolves were nearly hunted to extinction in the 1930s but have lately had a population resurgence in Montana, Idaho and Wyoming. Last summer, adult wolves were confirmed in Okanogan County.

State department of Fish and Wildlife biologist Dana Base says the next step is to put GPS collars on the adults. A motion-detection cameras had captured photos of the pack earlier this year, but biologists needed confirmation of their presence.
