INFO ABOUT THE ANIMAL:

Name: Arctic Wolf (Canis lupus arctos)
Location: Canadian Arctic and the northern parts of Greenland
Size: 1.8 m long, 79 cm high weight: 75 kg
Diet: Caribou, musk oxen, Arctic Hares, seals, ptarmigan, lemmings. Arctic wolves eat all their prey, also its bones and fur
Conservation status: common. They still live in the whole of its original range, because local conditions are too extreme for humans.
Interesting facts: mother gives birth to some 2-3 pups in May. Pups are born almost black – as they get older, colour of their fur turns to white. Adults are completely white, even in summer | arctic wolves live in the pack of some 7-10 members. Only alpha male and alpha female mate | arctic wolves have shorter ears and nose than other wolves species. They also have thicker fur, shorter legs | they do not run too fast, their advantage is persistence

no cage? no separation between you and the animal?

there is a place in the united states that i will be going to soon where you can enter the enclosures with the wolves. i alreadt go to one wolf santuary north from where i live, and work there and get to connect with the animals. there, at the loki clan wolf refuge, we do not get to go in with the wolves, but we do get to pat them and get kisses from them through the chain link fence.

since the young age of 4 years old, my dream was to see a wolf. i had millions of wolf stuffed animals, and i wanted nothing more than to meet one. now, at age 15, i get my long desired dream just about every weekend!

i love your photo's. they really capture what i believe to be true in a wolf. innocence, love, family, unity. to some the wolf is an evil creature, but they are more human than we think.

yeah, I love wolves in Brno and their amazing enclosure. It is so natural and full of plants! this photo was taken in Olomouc, where wolves lived in older and smaller enclosure. Good new is, that they have already moved to much larger and more interesting and natural exhibit!
