For each log, I try to select a photo from the Explore.org Gallery that represents the weekly behavior of the Exhibit Pack. Thanks to “jdy4wildlife” for posting this image of Grayson resting near his deer carcass. Notice the outstretched paw that signals to the scavengers that he still has possession even though he is trying to nap. This past week has been our first real blast of winter weather, with a polar vortex delivering some 25-30 below zero air temperatures. Wolf Specialist Abby Keller provided some good details on wolf adaptations to cold climates.

The International Wolf Center advances the survival of wolf populations by teaching about wolves, their relationship to wildlands and the human role in their future.
