After spending a lot of time looking for Wolfs in the Lamar Valley of Yellowstone and ,watching a den site with the enthusiast Wolf watchers , we unfortunately weren't lucky!. We did however visit the Grizzly and Wolf center in West Yellowstone which is where i saw this beautiful boy. It is a great place which has given homes to animals from the wild who for different reasons cannot go back. It was really educational and gave us the opportunity to see them.

Photographing bears, wolves and wolverines is done mainly from commercial hides at the border between Finland and Russia where animals are baited by food. I just want to be honest about it. Paying for wildlife observation (and conservation) remains key to ensure this business model outweighs others that can be harmful to animals such as hunting, farming, forestry, mining...
Spotted Wolf Spider, Pardosa amentata
Widespread and fairly frequent in most of Britain, also widespread in north-western and central Europe, Pardosa amentata is a wolf spider between 5mm and 8mm in length that has a brownish coloured body with darker brown markings or spots. However, confirmation of this species requires examination of the genitals of mature specimens.
It occurs in a wide range of open habitats, especially in damp situations. It has been recorded from grasslands, marshes, riversides, fens, salt-marsh, woodland clearings, hedge banks, moorland, blanket bog, waste ground, field margins and rarely heathland. In gardens this is usually the commonest Pardosa species.
Adults of both sexes are found mainly in early to mid Summer, and sometimes again in early Autumn. They can be seen scurrying around hunting for prey and warming themselves in the sun on patches of bare soil. Unlike spiders who use a web to catch their food, the wolf spiders catch their prey by running it down.
The female wolf spider carries her eggs in a round sack beneath her body. When the spiderlings hatch from the eggs the female carries the baby spiders on her back, as in this photo, until they are big enough to fend for themselves.

This is actually Yellowstone River, but we decided to name it Wolf Creek...
Not really inclined to up the exposure settings, cos it was still pretty dark when I shot this frame... Kinda like the dark tones..
Imagine standing at the banks of this river trying to capture a beautiful sunrise, and all of a sudden, a haunting series of wolf howls filled the air. For an instant, we were transfixed and mesmerized. Though we did not see any, it was enough to cause goosebumps... It was simply surreal.
In reality this missle is usually launced from a ship. The Sea Wolf is a naval guided missile system designed and built by BAC, later to become British Aerospace (BAe) Dynamics (now MBDA). It is an automated point-defence weapon system designed as a final line of defence against both sea-skimming and high angle anti-ship missiles and aircraft. The Royal Navy has fielded two versions, the GWS-25 Conventionally Launched Sea Wolf (CLSW) and the GWS-26 Vertically Launched Sea Wolf (VLSW) forms. In Royal Navy service Sea Wolf is being replaced by Sea Ceptor.
Sea Wolf is powered by the Blackcap solid-fuel rocket to a maximum velocity of Mach 2, and can intercept targets at ranges between 1,000 and 6,000 m (1,093.6 and 6,561.7 yd) and altitudes between 10 and 3,000 m (32.8 and 9,842.5 ft). The warhead weighs 14 kg (30.9 lb) and is a proximity fused HE-fragmenting type. In the manually loaded form, the missiles are stored on board in maintenance-free canisters, sealed until use and handled like a round of ammunition.
Instead of a launcher that is aimed at the target by the fire-control system, VL Sea Wolf uses a vertical-launch system (VLS). Missiles are launched vertically by a Cadiz booster motor and turnover pack, to clear the ship's superstructure and rapidly flipped onto their flight path by thrust vectoring. The booster motor, which also increases the range of VL Sea Wolf from 6.5 km to 10 km, then separates from the missile, which flies on to engage the target.

I thought I'd try something different with last night's Wolf Moon. I'm not used to doing night time photography so it was all trial and error.
Nikon D500, AF-S DX NIKKOR 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED. Six images merged in Lightroom and tweaked in Photoshop.

This mottled fellow was about 30-40 yards away from us in an enclosed preserve in north central Wisconsin-- canis lupis, aka Timber Wolf or Western Wolf, the only pure North American species, it turns out, because its cousin, the Red Wolf, seems to be part Coyote. Wolves are commonly seen in northern Wisconsin/Minnesota and throughout southern Canada!
