Abstract
► Evidence for a genetic basis for age at first dispersal in wild species is lacking. ► We tested for genetic variation in age at first dispersal in red wolves and coyote hybrids. ► We found evidence for genetic variation in male, but not female, red wolves. ► Hybrids dispersed at ages intermediate to red wolves and coyotes.
