Ruedi, my favorite

Ember

Kiri (yawning): the park's oldest wolf at 18; he is going strong and almost always up looking for food when I pass his enclosure. In the background is Eclipse.

Twister and Willow, coyotes

Marion, my other favorite. Smallest wolf in the park, but has a history of terrorizing all the other residents.

Does that mean you study wolf behavior there? That would be just the most amazing thing to do. to study wolves in a pack. i have spent many month studying horses (wild) herd behavior and I found it fascinating. I just love behavior, especially in more natural surroundings.
Great pictures, I also checked out your other pics...Thank you for sharing Ronnie

Yes, I'm here for a month doing the park maintenance/animal care work, as well as doing research for my college capstone project (which is like a thesis). I'm wishing I could stay longer--but I'll be sure to come back someday! They have opportunities for people to come in February and make observations during the breeding season, when you see some of the most interesting wolf behavior. I really want to do that some year.
