Since when were wolves truly extinct in the US?

no, pretty sure wolves have always been in the US.

List of grey wolf populations by country - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The United States as a whole has up to 9,000 wolves which are increasing in number in all their ranges. Wolf recovery has been so successful that the United States Fish & Wildlife Service removed the western grey wolf from the federal endangered species list on March 28, 2008.[2][33] Due to the controversy over wolf shootings, a coalition of environmental groups sued the federal government to put the gray wolf back on the Endangered Species list.[34] On July 18, 2008, a federal judge ruled in favor of renewed endangered species protection.[35] Alaska has a stable population of 6,000-7,000 wolves which are legally hunted from August to April as a big game species.[2][36] Minnesota has a population of 2,900[37] wolves which are legally protected, though they are occasionally culled for depredation control.[2] Minnesota has been granted complete control over its wolf population, and its wolf management plan establishes a minimum population of 1600 wolves.[38] Both Wisconsin and Michigan each have healthy populations of 600 wolves as of 2008.[39][40] The Rocky Mountain states (Wyoming, Idaho and Montana) have an approximate population of 1,700 wolves.[41] Two gray wolves were captured in north-central Washington state in July 2008, one of which was a nursing female. This is the first evidence of reproducing wolves in the state since the 1930s.[42] In northeast Oregon, also in July 2008, wolf howls were heard by biologists who identified at least 2 adults and 2 cubs. This was the first confirmed breeding pair in Oregon.[43] By December 2011, Oregon's gray wolf population had grown to 24. One of the Oregon gray wolves, known as OR-7, traveled more than 700 miles (1,100 km) to the Klamath Basin and crossed the border into California.[44] Wolf OR-7 became the first wolf west of the Cascades in Oregon since the last bounty was claimed in 1947.[45] As of January 14, 2009, the Bush administration removed the Canadian gray wolf from the Endangered Species List in every American state except Wyoming.[46]

There were certain species in the early 90s that were near extinction but that's the last I recall of wolves being near extinction in the US.

Since when were wolves truly extinct in the US?

Since europeans started to settle there and raise heard they saw wolves as a threat and started killing them. Apart from folk tales round the camp fire told to tourists they've ben wiped out until relatively recently. This is according to international experts that have tagged pretty much every heard in and followedo their progress.

But tell me what you know, have you seen many where you are

bro simply put, you are just wrong. the us has always had a population of wolves. is it much lower now then 300 years ago, sure. your original made it seem like wolves were extinct in the US and they are now just starting to return. not the case.

[Scrumhalf]

Excellent news, would like to see more of the same. As one of the few Westerners on this board, it is a matter of great joy for me personally to see this happen, Would also love to see a return of tall grass prairie and the bison as well, much more than there is now.
