ALBANY — A wolf shot by a hunter a decade ago in the Adirondacks near Great Sacandaga Lake was the first proven wild wolf in New York in more than a century, according to a new study Monday from the New York State Museum.

Binghamton University, in New York state, welcomed a wolf from the Wolf Conservation Center, as part of an outreach initiative to safeguard the future of wolves.

Defenders of Wildlife is trying to raise public awareness about the wolf hunts with a 15 second video – on the massive CBS superscreen.
