Pondering Wolf Pup

Video filmed in June of 2014 of a then eight-week-old gray wolf pup named Nikai - the newest adorable addition to the Wolf Conservation Center’s Ambassador Pack in South Salem, NY. During this time, Nikai was hand reared around the clock by the WCC “nanny team” in order to make him accustomed to human presence and touch. Developing a basic comfort level around people was vital to his becoming an educational ambassador and leading a happy and healthy life at the WCC. Today Nikai is one year old and as an Ambassador, Nikai helps WCC wolves Atka, Zephyr, and Alawa open the door to understanding the importance and plight of their wild kin.
