INFO ABOUT THE ANIMAL:

Name: Arctic Wolf (Canis lupus arctos)
Location: Canadian Arctic and the northern parts of Greenland
Size: 1.8 m long, 79 cm high weight: 75 kg
Diet: Caribou, musk oxen, Arctic Hares, seals, ptarmigan, lemmings. Arctic wolves eat all their prey, also its bones and fur
Conservation status: common. They still live in the whole of its original range, because local conditions are too extreme for humans.
Interesting facts: mother gives birth to some 2-3 pups in May. Pups are born almost black – as they get older, colour of their fur turns to white. Adults are completely white, even in summer | arctic wolves live in the pack of some 7-10 members. Only alpha male and alpha female mate | arctic wolves have shorter ears and nose than other wolves species. They also have thicker fur, shorter legs | they do not run too fast, their advantage is persistence

Okay. I must honestly say this is just your best photo of arctic wolf EVER. It looks like you went throw all Arctica to find this place, to find this wolf and waited for exactly this moment. Wolf seems so dangerous, like it can attack in every minute and still I can feel impossible feeling of being safe, because hey, it's just a curious puppy and wants to be petted!

Photo itself is so clear and beautiful that I can't even breathe. It's an honour for me you dedicated me this photo. I'm in love with it. Desperately, truly in love. Thank you!
