dangoldman Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 I have heard that there are wolves in florida in a preserve. I was wondering if this information is accurate and if so, where they are/if they allow photographers there. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jo7hs2 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Or this? Looks geared towards adoption, but... http://www.shywolfsanctuary.com/ Btw, Google has been pretty helpful on this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larry_norris2 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 I have been to the Shywolf Preserve and you can get very close to all the animals. There is even a wolf or two that you can set with--but most are in wire cages. There is a Florida cougar and a black leopard but you can't set with them--at least not twice. I shot using a 400mm and the wolves were curious about the bigger lens and I got a lot of eyeball to eyeball shots. Worth a visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markci Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Oh gee, at the shywolf thing you can adopt "Meinjein," who is part wolf, has a history of abuse, an "alpha" personality and is described as "good beginner dog." These people are nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangoldman Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 I had seen the shywolf one. I got about halfway down the page and saw all of these indian sounding things, like Chief George or something, and didnt think it was actually a wolf sanctuary, just a sanctuary at a zoo or something... I didnt find the seacrest wolf preserve though. Thanks for the help thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinblack Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 If you want to see wolves, go to Yellowstone, Alaska, Isle Royale, Canada, Siberia, or even Tibet. I'm not sure what you're looking to photograph in Florida. What is the point of taking a picture of Canis Lupus in an enclosure? A strong photograph of a wild wolf is exceptional. Game farms have ensured that any photo of a captive wolf is common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
