Every year wildlife is born in the wilderness, sort of like our Lord being born in a manger among animals. This is an original oil painting of a very wild gray wolf drinking from the stream on a very cold morning when only water with swift current stays open. The sky blue and very white snow you know just how cold, cold really is, and yet this is all a normal day in a gray wolve’s life as he searches for his daily bread. Canines are unique and can live in harmony in nature, only killing what is necessary to live, and he never wastes any food, never, the wolf pack depend on great hunting skills and great endurance to turn the tide for their pack. They are communal animals, ranging from as few as two to close to twenty wolves may make a pack, much is dependent on competing wolf packs and food supply.
If you get a chance to visit the International Wolf Center in Ely, MN there is much to learn and to share because the gray wolf is under attack once again, and there seems to be this injustice going on again, so I hope others like you and your freinds will learn more and become aware of ways to help them survive, they need a body of advocates or they might not survive. I love to paint and share all wildlife aniamal’s life stories through showing you their unique behavior from studying and seeing them in the wild.
Have a great day, and help to save a gray wolf, with peace and hope,
Best wishes,
