The Beautiful Wolf-Hybrid
View allAll Photos Tagged wolf,
Saw this magnificent grey wolf residing at the time I took this photo at the Alaskan Wildlife Conversation Center, in Alaska obvs. It's the closest I've been to a wolf in the wild and even from a distance they looked proud and intelligent and amazing.
The Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center is a sanctuary dedicated to preserving Alaska’s wildlife through conservation, education, research and quality animal care.
I don't want to alarm you, but some people close to me say that once a month, on the full moon, I look a bit like this. (That's the Halloween scary bit for those in parts of the world that celebrate it ;)

interesting video if you care to listen and watch. It was sent to me yesterday so I thought I'd share if you haven't seen it.
This wolf photo is actually one I got in Alaska several years ago and had posted an un-cropped version of this but I decide to crop in on the face and post again. It was actually snowing when I took this, snow not added in post processing. The head tilt reminds me of Otto. He always does this when I talk to him

Here in Manitoba (Riding Mountain Park) coming across a wolf is very rare so despite less than ideal lighting I was thrilled to encounter such a beautiful creature!
Wolf spiders are excellent hunters, controlling many pest insects. They rarely bite humans, and we do not have a reaction to their venom. Very useful spiders to have around! This one was prowling the flower bed in my front yard.
The magic in Yellowstone never ends. Yes, he heard the click of the camera....as he edged out of the woods.
As always, thanks so much for stopping by.

Also known as the timber wolf, Algonquin wolf and eastern timber wolf. This is the 3rd time I have been fortunate enough to see a wolf in the wild in over 30 years of visiting Algonquin Park. It was a great morning!
