Nakota

Wolf T0006F (formally R006F) — named Nakota by rangers — came to the rehabilitation facility at the end of spring, year one. Wolves TA1001M and TA1002F had only recently been released from the program, and researchers had the space and means to take her in on short notice. She was an adolescent, and still too young to hunt prey outside of the sanctuary's perimeters by herself. Presumably an orphan, the young female will be released close to Toklat Valley Pack territory in the hopes the alpha pair accepts her into their pack.

Name Meaning;
Nakota (pronounced nah-KO-tah) is one of several tribes that make up the Sioux people of South Dakota. It comes from the Yankton word, Nakhota, and means "friends, allies, or to be friendly."
