Somewhere is aerial footage of a Siberian super pack of wolves numbering in the many hundreds. I'll post it if I come across it again. I can't find it now. There were so many wolves in it that I thought it was probably fake.

Wasn't it the mongols who kept huge packs of mastiffs to clean up the vanquished on battlefields soas not to spread disease?

Mastiffs > wolves (IMHO).

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — An Oregon-born gray wolf that thrilled biologists as it journeyed far south into California was found dead after apparently being struck by a vehicle, authorities said Wednesday.

No foul play was suspected in the death of the male wolf known as OR93, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife said in a news release. Gray wolves are listed as endangered in California, where they were wiped out by the 1920s.

Thrilled? Why?

I wonder if it's possible for biologists to closely bond with the wild creatures they study?
