Watermelon-Loving Wolves!

What better way to beat the summer heat than with delicious watermelons?
Wolves shed their insulating undercoats each spring to allow them to withstand the warmer summer weather, but sometimes shedding isn't enough. We're always trying to make sure that our ambassador wolves are comfortable we want them to have exciting and fun experiences too! We can accomplish both goals by providing the wolves with enrichment fun activities that will challenge and mentally stimulate them while keeping them cool as well!
Nikai, Zephyr, and Alawa are captive-born Canadian/Rocky Mountain gray wolves at the Wolf Conservation Center (WCC), a 501c3 non-profit organization, in South Salem, NY. The siblings are 'ambassador wolves' at the WCC that help teach the public about wolves and their vital role in the environment.
If you want to watch Zephyr, Alawa, Nikai or the WCC's critically endangered Mexican gray wolves or red wolves in live time, visit our live wolf webcams at www.nywolf.org/webcams. If you see something cool, let us know!
For more information about wolves and the WCC's participation in wolf recovery, please visit our website at www.nywolf.org and follow us on Facebook ( / nywolforg ) and Twitter ( / nywolforg , and Instagram ( / wolfconservationcenter )

Perfect way to spend a summer day : fresh watermelon, a cooling swim in your local pool then sit in the shade.

[@freddypedraza2066]

Man I envy country people. Can't do that in the city

[@diosdehuecomundo]

You can't buy watermelons, visit a public pool and there's no shade anywhere? Where the heck do you live??

[@Viktor47917]

A Wild Wolf does not just speak through physical body-language, but also speaks to each other through external signal, or for better word: vibe. Maybe vibe, but they have a more broader language than expected, just like other types of mammals. A Wilf Wolf is my favorite type of mammal, and do not judge me for that! They are the most social mammals normally not seen, and they are strongly strategic as well! Your own dog still today has their ancient ancestor of a bigger, more powerful Wild Wolf from long before! But, I would not call them a "Wild" Wolf for 2 reasons: -A Wolf has its own structure, so it has its own form of society just we do. -They look at us wierd just like we see them as weird! A Wolf thinks a Human is wierd just as much as a Human sees a Wolf as weird! So, a Wolf should be respected, just we respect each other. Cause by natural principles, a Wolf and Human are similar to each other, just with a few differences! So, for cold truth, you think a Wolf is an enemy, better call the one you are related to an enemy as well! I am a Carnivore in diet, and man do I aggressive with meat! But, I am also pretty social and pretty strong in strategic mindset. There are a lot of people out there like that, but people trusted lies told to them, so what we saw in the ancient times is lost but only a few know still. Face it: almost all mammals are the same. Accept that and maybe you will find a more peaceful lifestyle...

[@iSweariCanDance]

I've lived up north in Alaska for a few months to study arctic wolves. They have social structures and follow an alpha leader wolf that coordinates their movements and decisions. It's very interesting to add wolves will make weak and injured wolves lead the pack so no one is left behind. They are incredibly intelligent and affectionate towards each other but become aggressive when their defending their territories or fighting for a mate. They are also monogamous!

You write all of that from this? What arevyou smoking, brudda

[@Viktor47917]

@@SnivyO.O well, Wolves are my favorite Wildlife Animal. It pisses me off the most hearing how hunters mercilessly kill them for trophy! I'm just putting out points to say why a Wolf is no different from a person really. They have families, a societal structure as well, and a form of land they live with just like we do. They have a home, just like we do. They communicate to each other in a unique language, just like we do. They have loving and respectful families just like we do. So, people should understand why killing a Wolf for trophy of a sport is so stupid, because you are mercilessly killing an innocent family. Leave the Wolves alone is what I tell others that the what ever handled the Wildlife should damn well advocate for and let their families live. They should be banning hunting for them because they ain't fucking surviving and toss the innocent animal in the trash! How merciless and selfish can that be?! People complain about keeping their families safe because they value them. But people should learn to respect other Wildlife Families too! That is part of why society needs to grow the fuck up and recognize reality, not desire...

[@eg-draw]

No, they don't. For carnivores fruits and vegetable have no energy value (short intestines). They use this to get water plus they May like the taste. Stop spreading yours vegan wet Dreams.

[@biocaster777]

@@eg-draw I'm pretty sure they just ear fruits and vegetables as "vitamin supplements" and medicimes, though. They sometimes eat berries in the wild. But the meal of the day will still be meat, obviously. Fun fact: the opposite happen as well with deers, they somestimes eat small animals.
