[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is one of the better shots of the leader of this wolf pack. He's cagey, but I got 'im. I got the impression he didn't like being filmed and worked for quite a while. Of course, his 'mates' just relaxed and enjoyed the day!

PP--cropped and sharpened. Was at the full focal length as it was a large enclosure so they can be as 'natural' as possible.

Hi Gary
Nice clear shot..Great capture the leader being allert while the pack rest... but I guess they haven't really got any where to go with all that wire.. But the spirit is not broken...
TFS... A Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to all you good people on that side of the globe....
Cheers
Lance

Hello Gary! Wolves, I am scared to encounter wolves when my wife and I walk through the trail of Contra Loma Reservoir. We asked a ranger about the danger. The ranger said thet as long as we stayed on the trail and do not bother them, the wolves will just leave. Just continue walking your regular pace. Still it is scary. A nice capture of these "captured" wolves.

Hi Gary, Lovely animals but it seems a bit sad thay are locked up like that rather than running around the hills. The photo is good but it emphasises their caged situation more than their natural beauty. Murray.
