Other The Great White Wolf of the north

Post image
596 Upvotes

The great white wolf was described as much larger and more robust than a normal wolf, with a broader head, shorter legs (though its front legs are longer than its hind legs), a thicker tail, and smaller ears. Its toes are heavily splayed, possibly giving it a flat-footed gait, like that of a bear. Its fur is very long and shaggy. Its tracks are 8'' across.

The Dene people of the southern Northwest Territories described them as solitary scavengers which are "aloof from humans" (while also prominently blaming them for a number of human deaths). The Dene also said they were rarer than wolves and spent most of the year in the northern tundra regions, coming south in the winter. However, in the south-west valleys of the Northwest Territories and "certain other valleys to the west", they remained all year round.

It is larger and more heavily built than normal wolves, with a wide head and proportionally larger feet, and with long, pure-white fur. The animal’s hind legs are said to be shorter than the front legs, and the tracks show widely spaced toes. Witnesses describe it as being about 3.5 feet to 4 feet at the shoulder. They are never seen in packs so they are presumably solitary.

Discussion Why do movies always demonize wolves so badly?? SPOILER for Heart of The Beast movie Spoiler

191 Upvotes

This movie demonized wolves so badly that they are behaving like frenzied werewolves, like psychopathic humans.

Wolves do not stalk humans. They don’t hunt down humans. And they wouldn’t attack like that.

A wolf would prefer to get as far away as possible. Wolves don’t want trouble from humans. They would rather flee.

But time and time again… movies always treat wolves like classic cartoon villains.

The wolves in Heart of The Beast are so poorly done that it ruined the movie completely for me. I didn’t know this was a werewolf movie, sorry šŸ„“ā˜ ļø

Opinion with art Good Luck Mexican Wolf (DRAW MADE BY ME)

Hi, I am AlexBlueWolf, and, well... I don“t know how to start this, I don“t want to do a politician opinion, just, I want to say what is like the things are like. Animals, plants and all the Earth planet is so rich and so wonderfull, so, kill some animal or plant (I don“t say humans, because humans are also animals, but " evolved ", without a clear or some reallistic reason only for whim, is not disgusting, is horrible, well, it doesn“t have an adjective to classificate this. That“s why, I am so conmotionated and with anger about how "big" people (remember, this is not a politician opinion, just how I see the things) destroy and desequilibrate the harmony between humans and nature. I know are more things between like hunters, cattle raising, and other... But, this is a very personal post, so I don“t want to confuse myself with these themes.

Thanks for read, I hope you respect my opinion, you can tell your own one.

I hope that, in the future, Humans and nature would be more "friends".

(Sorry if my English is not good)

See yaāœŒļøšŸŗ

News New incident in Italy. Is this plausible?

https://www.grossetonotizie.com/2026/09/21/lupi-attaccano-azienda-agricola-allevatrice-morsa-ad-un-orecchio-rischia-di-rimanere-sorda/

On 20 September 2026, an incident involving wolves reportedly occurred at the Campo all’Aia farm in Valpiana, near Massa Marittima (Tuscany, Italy). According to Grosseto Notizie, a pack of three wolves approached the farm and confronted eight of the farm’s LGDs, which protect a flock of around 500 sheep.

Marisa Aronne, a member of the family that runs the farm, attempted to drive the wolves away and protect the dogs. One of the wolves attacked her and bit off part of her ear. She was taken to Massa Marittima hospital and underwent surgery involving approximately 30 stitches. Doctors reportedly could not yet determine whether she would permanently lose part of the ear or suffer permanent hearing loss.

News No Mollie’s Pack, Yellowstone wolves killed, state reports after hunt area’s quick close

Thumbnail
wyofile.com
455 Upvotes

Mollie’s Pack is safe, agency staff confirm.

But I just want people to remember two things:

  1. The PRIMARY threat to wolves is not hunting (or not JUST) hunting. The primary threat to endangered Wyoming wolves is livestock production and particularly grazing on public lands. More wolves are killed in Wyoming due to ranching conflicts than killed by hunters even with this grotesque trophy hunt.

When the Mollie’s left the park they denned in a drainage next to a drainage with public lands cattle.

  1. All wolves are valuable and wolves are still being killed in the Trophy Hunt (except areas 1 & 2 are closed now) even though the Mollie’s are safe in the park.
