Abandoned wolf pups found in forested area in Turkey's Diyarbakır

A total of six wolf pups were found in a forested area in the southeastern province of Diyarbakır on May 8, state-run Anadolu Agency has reported. 

Ergün Yücel Avcı, Forestry Ministry's director of the Hazro district, and forest protection officers found the pups while on duty investigating afforestation works in the İslamköy neighborhood.  

Officers have been waiting for the infant wolves' mother to come back.
 
However, they decided to deliver them to the regional directorate of national parks after waiting for a long time for the mother.  

The wolf pups will be released to their natural habitat after receiving medical treatment.
