Photos of the wolves I was blessed enough to spend time with at Wolf Park.
Photography by Savant, who is also the one to be credited for giving me this wonderful experience.
A few killer whales spotted on O'Brien's Boat Tours! We got to witness the savage, yet beautiful, side of Mother Nature here. The orcas were busy chowing down on a minke whale when we found them, and they weren't letting him go! We saw him thrash around a bit but the killer whales grabbed onto him and rid him of his tail, no more swimming for the minke after that.
When the orcas were done with him, the birds came down in a frenzy trying to get in some of the leftovers.
These guys were absolutely amazing to see, they were incredibly quick, darting in front of the boat in a blink. It was just amazing to see so many in the one place. Anywhere from 20 and on were feeding, it was hard to count them they were so fast.
National Geographic calls them one of the world's most feared ocean predators, and it was easy to see why. It was also easy to see why they're called "the wolves of the sea", they certainly did hunt in a pack (or a pod). I've been told they're known to follow their prey for days, no wonder they get so into it whent hey get to feed.
According to the book on board the Atlantic Whaler (O'Brien's' tour boat) orcas sometime congegrate in larger than usual pods, called super pods. As many as 150 have been spotted in one area.
I wouldn't want to be anywhere near there.
Who am I kidding? Yes I would, that'd be amazing!

You’d think after the first two thousand dire wolves died in the tar pits, maybe the third thousand would have stayed away.
We have been searching for Wolves for past few days.Till now we could get only a glimpse of it for a few moments.Here is one such.The Male and female were running away from us.As it crossed the path,female took a moment to starring us and went into the bush.
At Langedrag Nature Park, you can go in with "unsocialized" wolves. In a sense, they are untrained, though they are somewhat accustomed to humans entering their presence every so often and will come up to explore.
Obviously you cannot pet them, but it was really neat to have them within 2-3 feet of you as they investigated the new addition to their pen.
