Amazing photos from couple who spent 6 years with a pack of wolves

Wolves get a bad rap in folklore, but Jim and Jamie Dutcher spent six years (1990-1996) living among them to prove wolves aren’t big bad guys. Living without electricity, running water, radio or phones, based on a yurt near Idaho’s Sawtooth wilderness (which sees 5-6 feet of snow in winter), the couple socialized with a pack from the time they were pups, getting an unprecedented look at the pack’s day-to-day life. “We formed a deep relationship … it was the kind of unshakable trust that wolves usually share only with their own pack, a bond that would last a lifetime.” The Dutchers also emphasize that wolves are “the mother of all dogs” and we should extend the same protectiveness we feel for dogs to wolves. These photos certainly have us convinced! [Source]
