Volunteer Amanda poses with arctic wolf storm.
While there is a human in this photo interacting with a wolf the human has been trained on how to interact with this animal and there is still a risk of misunderstanding between wolf and human. Wolves and wolf dogs are wild animals, not pets.
Wow. What a gorgeous creature! This wolf looks a lot like my character Snowcap. ^_^
I agree: wolves are wild animals and shouldn't be treated as domesticated dogs. They have a language of their own and could easily take a human action for a threat. I really dislike people that think they can approach any animal and immediately have a good connection with them. When I see deer in my meadow, sure, I approach them slowly, but when I reach a certain distance, I stop and sit to only observe.
Thank you so much! I'm so happy to hear you agree, if only more people did. And you can volunteer there (when you're 18)! They give you food and housing!
