Two wolves from the pack of eight at the Haliburton Forest and Wildlife Preserve. The captive wolves roam a 15 acre wooded enclosure and have minimal contact with humans. Photography and Viewing is only through one way glass and sightings are hit or miss. This day I was fortunate to see all 8 wolves.

New Valley Wolves live @ Whelan's Dublin as part of the Canalphonic festival.
Fantastic new Irish Rock band. Check them out.
An alternative shot I did for the Macro Monday theme of Backlit, a decorated stone egg I brought back from Alaska, adorned with a pair of wolves, after I spent a month there on deployment to Eilson AFB with 5 Squadron Tornados in the 1990's.
I am deeply honored to have this photo chosen to be part of Yellowstone Forever's 2026 calendar. This is a great organization that does so much to protect and serve one of our most wonderful national treasures. Many thanks to the contest judges who felt this photo was worthy of representing Yellowstone in next year's calendar. It's my favorite place on the planet, and wolves happen to be my favorite North American mammal.

Thank you for your always kind visit, invitations and comments dear friends ! : )
As a dog lover, it's in my nature to love these as well. Reality tells me that they are not as friendly as they look. As a pack, they kill for sport and often do not eat the kill.
Gray Wolves howling in chorus at Alpha Parc located in the heart of the Mercantour National Park, Saint-Martin-Vésubie, France.
Wolves howl to assemble the pack (usually before and after hunts), to pass on an alarm (particularly at a den site), to locate each other during a storm or unfamiliar territory and to communicate across great distances.
When howling together, wolves harmonize rather than chorus on the same note, thus creating the illusion of there being more wolves than there actually are.
Since 1992, the wolves that had been exterminated in France over a hundred years ago are living here again. They kept migrating across the Italian ‘green border’. Today, there are 25 to 30 wolves divided into packs of five to six, roaming through the seven valleys of the park again.
The Mercantour National Park is a unique nature reserve located in the very southeast corner of France.
This was taken at Haliburton Forest where they have a captive, wild pack of eight wolves. The wolves have minimal contact with humans and photography is only available through one way glass. Sightings are purely by chance as the wolves can freely roam their 15 acre enclosure.

Face down on a pillow of shame
There are some girls with a needle trying to spell my name
My body’s not a canvas
My body’s now a toilet wall
I don’t believe anymore
I don’t believe anymore
Raised by wolves
Stronger than fear
Raised by wolves
We were raised by wolves
Raised by wolves
Stronger than fear
If I open my eyes,
You disappear
Another picture, I've made at Tierpark Goldau.
I think the one on the ground has done something wrong.
The wolves were quite active on this day. I could take a few nice pictures even if the weather wasn't that good...
Take a peek at it in ORIGINAL size. Much more dynamic.

Wind Wolves is an ecologically unique region where the Transverse Ranges, Coast Ranges, Sierra Nevada, western Mojave Desert and San Joaquin Valley converge. Due to elevation ranging from 640 to 6,005 feet, the preserve has an impressive array of landforms and habitats that serve as a critical landscape linkage and wildlife corridor between the Coast Ranges and Sierra Nevada.

A pair of Alpha wolves at Alpha Parc located in the heart of the Mercantour National Park, Saint-Martin-Vésubie, France
In social animals, the alpha is the individual in the community with the highest rank. Wolves show deference to the alpha pair in their pack by allowing them to be the first to eat and, usually, the only pair to reproduce.
It is common behavior in a wolf pack for the alpha pair to be the only two to mate. It keeps the numbers under control, for too many wolves in the pack, especially puppies, would be a liability. Many hungry mouths and not enough hunters means they could all suffer. Instead, each wolf devotes itself completely to the few puppies that are born to the alpha pair, making sure they grow up to be strong and beneficial additions to the pack.
