Very young
Arctic wolf (Canis lupus arctos, vlk arkticky) from ZOO Brno, Czech republic
Story of the photo: this youngster looks pretty angry, right?

in fact, it was very friendly, it came close to me, posing for camera. Then it yawned and as animal yawning is always interesting, I was shooting like crazy. In the last phase of yawning, wolves always show teeth and if you manage to capture it, you gain photo of "very angry wolf"

so this is only only illusion

after it stopped yawning, the pup gave me nice smiles again

now I await hate comments "stop torturing the poor wolf" from those who are lazy to read the description
Thank you for your comments and faves
