Our goal is to increase public awareness and acceptance of wolves. The first step in doing so is to challenge the above myth.
As professional wildlife photographers who have spent 15 years working with the Toklat wolves of Denali National Park, my husband and I have been, and seen others, within 10 feet of wild wolves literally hundreds of times and have documented their reactions to humans... none of which were in the least bit menacing or threatening.
Please see http://www.savetoklatwolf.com/Wolf1.html for photos of how these wild wolves naturally behave around humans when they discover that they won't be harmed or fed.
Then share these links with people who think otherwise.

This is a video of a riveting encounter with a pack of wolves in Yellowstone last winter. It was fascinating to watch the pack work as a group to bring down the bull elk. Although one of the bull's antlers was broken, he still kicked and it was a wonder that none of the wolves was injured.
This is a classic example of the wolves taking the weakest, as the other healthy bull elk was ignored, and the wolves targeted the elk with the broken antler.

NAICHE: Acts like a big baby and loves to be the center of attention. Loves to run and sleep with owners daughter He likes to snoop on the counters for food. Not a trash can dog. Loves to be petted and hugged. Good on the leash and people think instantly that he is a wolf. He hates it when it rains and will not go out in a muddy yard. He loves grass and dry surfaces. Hates getting his feet dirty…hahah
Has never destroyed anything except for an occasional outdoor plants. Will scratch on door when he wants to come in. Naiche loves to ride in the car but gets a little car sick if trips are long. He digs and can jump high but has not jumped over 5 foot high containment fence.

SAGE
Sage loves to give lots of kisses. She loves to eat—she will eat Naiche’s helping and then will eat more. Her appetite increased after her spaying. SAGE loves to run too. Sage is loving and will stare at you for hours trying to figure out what you are thinking. She loves to play fight with Naiche. She loves to hunt mice and is a good mouser. She is initially shy around people but does like to bark at dogs and doesn’t like cats---neither does Niache. She will sit outside for hours to stare at her surroundings and will scratch at the door when she wants to come in. She has a heart of gold and always wants to be petted and loved. Sage is dominant over Naiche and loves to rustle him up at times. She doesn’t hurt him and he kind of likes it. She is well behaved. She digs but doesn’t jump. .
