Saturday the 10th of February visted the Brookfield Zoo, had received about 8-10 inches of snow over the previous 2 days.
Spent a few hours at the Wolf exhibit and took some shots, let me know what you like and don't like.
I was trying for composition.
All shots take with D500 and Nikor 200-500, editing in Lightroom for Tonal Balance and sharpening.
The captures varied, metadata is attached.
If you look close at the second picture, there is a shaved patch on the wolfs front leg, of the 6 wolfs, 5 we could identify same shaved patch on either of the front legs. My shooting buddy and I think the wolfs had there teeth cleaned. The crops were to identify very clean and white teeth.

Yeah, but these are wolves in sheep's clothing, now - aren't they, Mike?
You really think they all went to the same dentist, to have their teeth cleaned, do you, Mike? ....
Isn't it possible they all got caught on the same barbed wire fence?
An excellent series of photographs of the subjects.
Well taken.

Fantastic set! I am just a bit jealous that you have such subjects where you are. No wolves here in Vermont.
Wolves are my favorite wild animals - that zoo seems to have naturalized enclosures for them, you got some beautiful shots.
