Description

So, technically this is not one of my best pictures, because it is heavily cropped and was shot under very bad conditions, but it has enough emotional value and happiness behind it that I want to share it anyway.

This little one belongs to this couple: Inka and Bootsmann


They got four very cute puppies on May 4th, 2015 - three of them brown like Inka and one black like Bo. Though this one definitely inherited it's fathers expression. ;) Like when Bootsmann's litter-brother Ole first had puppies, this is special for me because Ole and Bo where the first wolf pups I took photos of and this whole wolf family has a special place in my heart. They're adorable and lovely with a very playful and curious nature, not as shy as most wolves even though they're not hand reared. These wolves do pay attention to visitors sometimes and at certain times we even where able to interact with them, even with the fence between us.
Now I'm happy I can see the happy Bo+Inka-couple with a happy family.

Photographywise - the day was not so good. The few photos I managed to take are actually pretty useless, because the puppies and Inka really did their very best to give us
(my friend :iconchijoke: and :icondjkb:) no opportunity to take nice photos without a fence in the background AND foreground or within a smaller distance than 10 meters. But I'll come back for sure soon enough.

My kindest thanks to djkb for letting me borrow his camera and thus freeing me from my bad-spare-camera-crisis, throwing me into a too-good-spare-camera-crisis.

Simply adorable! I have to agree; he looks a lot like his daddy in this image. Such an intense stare. xD

I am a little curious as to why the park would place two closely related wolves together for breeding, though. Is there a reason why they didn't place an unrelated female in with Bo?
