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.
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 ;)

The Arctic wolf, Canis lupus arctos, also known as the white wolf or polar wolf, is a subspecies of grey wolf native to Canada's Queen Elizabeth Islands, from Melville Island to Ellesmere Island.
Arctic wolves inhabit the Arctic regions of North America and Greenland. Thanks to its isolation, the Arctic wolf is not threatened by hunting and habitat destruction in the same way as its southern relatives. But it does face threats. In 1997 there was a decline in the Arctic wolf population and its prey, muskoxen, and Arctic hares.
Gray wolves are social animals, living together in tightly organized packs. Though known as gray wolves, fur color can range from white to shades of gray, brown and black. The gray wolf is federally designated as threatened in Minnesota and endangered in the remaining lower 48 states and Mexico.
Der Eurasische Wolf erreicht eine Widerristhöhe von etwa 70 bis 90 Zentimeter und eine Kopf-Rumpf-Länge bis zu 140 Zentimeter.[1] Das Gewicht liegt meist zwischen 30 und 50 Kilogramm. Zwischen Männchen und Weibchen besteht ein Geschlechtsdimorphismus: Rüden sind meistens größer und schwerer als Fähen. Das Fell Eurasischer Wölfe ist gelblichgrau, graubraun oder dunkelgrau gefärbt. Die Unterseite der Schnauze und die Kehle sind heller, die Rückseiten der Ohren erscheinen leicht rötlich. Die Rückenfärbung weist in den meisten Fällen einen dunklen bis schwarzen Sattelfleck auf. Ebenfalls dunkler gefärbt sind oftmals die Rutenspitze und die Vorderseite der Beine. Im Gegensatz zu wolfsähnlichen Haushunden sind Wölfe hochbeiniger und haben eine gerade Rückenlinie, während sie bei Hunden oft zur Rute hin abfällt. Die Rute des Wolfs ist buschig und gerade. Wölfe haben tendenziell kleinere Ohren, die zudem innen dicht behaart sind.

I've seen coyotes in our neighborhood before, but never a wolf! Luckily it was just a cub, and the mother seemed friendly :)
A black (grey) wolf stares me down in a chance meeting. I came across him just south of Spray Lake in Kananaskis Alberta.
Photographed at a wolf sanctuary. Not a zoo.
The sanctuary is for wolves rescued from the wild that could not be let loose due to injury or their inability to live without human assistance.
They are not caged and can run free within the many acres of the sanctuary.

A lone Timber Wolf at the Calgary Zoo. It was a cool day and the snow was lightly falling too.

Rhonda Denney, the artist, beautifully captures the allure and power in the eyes of this majestic wolf. She uses a combination of fabric pigments and stitching to create this striking quilt.
January's first full moon is known as the Wolf moon apparently from the howling of hungry wolves in winter.
The rising sun catches the tops of the plumes of steam billowing out of the trio of C40-8's leading 145 empties for Minntac on a -34F degree morning.
This is a sanctuary wolf I photographed in California some years ago.

Der Wolf ist das größte Raubtier aus der Familie der Hunde. Wölfe leben in der Regel in Familienverbänden, umgangssprachlich Rudel genannt. Hauptbeute sind in den meisten Regionen mittelgroße bis große Huftiere.
