The gray wolf or grey wolf (Canis lupus), often known simply as the wolf, is the largest extant wild member of the Canidae family.
.
Der Wolf (Canis lupus) ist eine Raubtierart aus der Familie der Hunde (Canidae). Wölfe leben und jagen im Rudel, Hauptbeute sind mittelgroße bis große Huftiere. Die Art war früher auch in ganz Europa verbreitet, wurde jedoch in West- und Mitteleuropa weitgehend ausgerottet. Deutschland wurde erst Ende der 1990er Jahre wieder besiedelt, im Jahr 2000 wurden erstmals Welpen festgestellt. Wölfe haben schon frühzeitig Eingang in die Mythen und Märchen vieler Völker gefunden, sie zählen daher zu den bekanntesten Raubtieren.
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.

Twenty-three Mexican gray wolves have been released in Arizona and New Mexico since a program began nearly two years ago to revive the endangered species. While the government has met a fourth of its goal to see 100 wolves living outside of captivity, the program has drawn mixed reviews. (AP Photo/Jeff Robbins)
The wolf at Tennoji zoo. Note - "The" wolf. I have no idea where the others were. This is possibly one of the best animal pictures I've ever gotten, methinks....

Wolf spiders are members of the family Lycosidae, from the Greek word "λύκος" meaning "wolf". They are robust and agile hunters with good eyesight. They live mostly solitary lives and hunt alone. Some are opportunistic wanderer hunters, pouncing upon prey as they find it or chasing it over short distances. Others lie in wait for passing prey, often from or near the mouth of a burrow.
Wolf spiders resemble Nursery web spiders (family Pisauridae), but they carry their egg sacs by attaching them to their spinnerets (Pisauridae carry their egg sacs with their chelicerae and pedipalps). Wolf spiders have two eyes out of eight that are large and prominent. The eight eyes of the Nursery web spiders are all of approximately equal size.
