Koa was part of a zoo wolf pack of three, but aggression developed between the two females, so, they had to be separated. She is still adjusting to sanctuary life.

Thank you in advance to everyone that comments and/or faves my picture. They are all immensely appreciated.
I've seen coyotes in our neighborhood before, but never a wolf! Luckily it was just a cub, and the mother seemed friendly :)
Three wolf cubs at the entrance of the den, France
Breeding occurs between February and April, only the alpha male and female will mate and she will give birth to the pups alone in her den. After the first month, they emerge from the den with her. It is the responsibility of all the wolves in the pack to help to raise the offspring. They will take turns caring for them while other members go out to hunt. Even with the entire pack caring for them, less than half of all pups survive the first year.
The pups in a wolf pack have a great deal of freedom and privileges. In fact, they are often able to do more and to benefit more than some of the adults within the pack that have a very low ranking.
When they are about two years old they are mature, and they may stay within their own pack and be given a place on the social ladder or they can also leave that pack and go to form one of their own. Males often leave while females choose to stay in the pack they were born into.
It was snowing when I took this picture. It is at a Wildlife Refuge in West Yellowstone, Mt. These animals will be return the wild. This wolf wasn't trusting me so I took a quick photo and left.

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!

The Arctic wolf, also known as the white wolf or polar wolf, is a subspecies of grey wolf native to the High Arctic tundra of Canada's Queen Elizabeth Islands, from Melville Island to Ellesmere Island. Unlike some populations that move between tundra and forest regions, Arctic wolves spend their entire lives north of the northern treeline. Their distribution to south is limited to the northern fringes of the Middle Arctic tundra on the southern half of Prince of Wales and Somerset Islands.
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!
