This page is all about the newest addition to the pack at the International Wolf Center. Meet Rieka! Her name (pronounced Rye-kuh) means power of the wolf; peaceful ruler; power of the home.
There have been many anxious moments since her adoption. We are reaching milestones on a daily basis and we see her strength as she grows both physically and behaviorally. We thought we would use this forum for posting photos and statistics of her development.
