  1. How can a sane person be anti-wolf? They are wonderful animals it's a pleasure to watch this great alpha male hunting for food. What a drive he has, totally focused and willing to survive.

  2. Wolves are the best creatures for art, whether you want to photograph them, paint them, draw them, write a poem or just listen to their howls. This animal is incredible.

    And just imagine this: Wolves are apex predators, so imagine if they had the size of big cats, since size is the only thing they lack, they have the bite, the speed, the endurance, the strength and most of all the intelligence.

  3. I like how wolves work together as a team, you know what they say, team work makes the dream work, or in this case, team work makes the HUNT work

  4. Hunting buffalo for hundred and MAYBE thousand years?? Yeah can confirm they do hunt its for a few years!!!

  5. Love this vid! Some people think they know all about wolves based on these one-sided vids they show on here of little wolves, dogs and coyotes. There are humongous wolves, coyotes, coywolves and dogs that exist people. They can climb trees too and most people did not know that. Wolves also have a PSI bite force of over 1,200 pounds. That is more than any big cat, dog and comparable to a polar and grizzly bear. AMAZING!!!

  6. I fucking love wolves and I don’t give a shit if bison are famous in my country, BITCH, FUCK THE BISON

  7. Scott Rockholm is a criminal for wanting to wipe out the wolf population in Idaho, for the mere reason, in his little mind: "saving nature". I had a talk the other day with a dumb co-worker about lions who told me technically the exact thing. That trophy-hunters are good for the reason that lions kill everything and that so-called $50,000 goes a long way helping preserve nature. How people come up with such absurd ideas, I know not? Needless to say he lost all my respect after that.

  8. Here's my theory as to why the Bison run, even though they outnumbered the wolves : They may have evolved to make that mistake.Yes. That specific mistake may be hardwired in their DNA. The wolves need to survive. Their presence is critical in order to maintain balance in the region. So the Bison run. And the wolves survive as a result. Evolution isn't always natural selection. Sometimes,it is the members of the species, whose behavior not only allows their own survival, but the survival of their predators too, that thrive the most. Like that Bison that trampled it's own kind. That was no accident. They probably do that systematically.
