Shadow Wolves seek more recruits to patrol border


Are you interested in a law enforcement job on the Tohono O'odham Nation. Then the Shadow Wolves might want you.

The all-Native unit is seeking new recruits to patrol the reservation, which shares 75 miles with the Mexico border. By law, the Shadow Wolves can have 25 members, who must be at least one-fourth Indian.

"I'm working in a job that's unique in the world. There's no other office that does what we do and how we do it," Sloan Satepauhoodle, a member of the Kiowa Tribe of Oklahoma, tells The Washington Post.

The Shadow Wolves are part of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement, an agency of the Department of Homeland Security.
