Future and Prognosis Prognosis for landowners and red wolves to coexists is good. Landowners most understand the actions of red wolves and at their current population status they do not represent a significant threat to person or property. Prognosis for addressing hybridization in red wolf populations is uncertain. Interbreeding between red wolves and coyotes may be the result of small remnant or expanding population of wolves. Relocated family units need to be monitored for the degree of hybridization, circumstances which hybridization occurs, and the contribution hybrids make to a population. Observing this situation the red wolves need to be relocated in areas that coyotes do not exists this in turn will limit or even prevent a hybridization problem. (Kelly Brian T et. al.
