Arctic wolves (Canis lupus arctos)

I wish I could say that I'd seen these guys in their natural habitat, but I didn't. These were at Parc Omega in Quebec. This is a huge area where a few species of animals have large areas in which to run free, while the humans drive very slowly through the site in cars. It was an interesting experience, mainly for the benefit of a 7 year old nephew, but I must say I did love to see these guys.

Definitely a less inhospitable environment than the far north. Nice to see this trio looking so healthy.

Excellent shot of this threesome Christine. P.O is a great place to visit with lots of opportunity to see some animals in the semi-wild. Ones many of us never get a chance to see in the wild.
