That's art. We need to get some of those reviewers on here.
So how many chicks threw themselves at you after you wore yours? Post a pic of you on here sporting it. Then you can drive us mad with lust, Mitch and Neonorth included. Awoooooooooooh Stacy, wolf howl and whistle. It will most likely be the due to the shirt. Because, that pipe just does you no justice.
What made you look that up?

Dammit, do you mean that we don't get a sneak preview of you debuting it?
I always wonder about how people find things online. I get asked that alot, so I like to know how others do it as well.
What kind of battery charger, I have a box full of brand new in package mixed variety cell phone battery chargers. Tell me the model, I'll send it to you if I have it.

Damn, I tried that strategy like three years ago, but never boosted any sales. Funny stuff.

Stacy, of the ever watchful and critical eye, you knew i wouldn't be able to resist the scroll down or to post my opinion. The first words to leap out at me were, "huskies, not wolves". The poster was absolutely right. In fact, the one in most prominant view has the perfect face masking of a malemute husky (not the Siberian, by the way, which has closer wolf markings but is smaller and slimmer). The husky is the closest canine relative to the wolf, but has several differences in appearance. The husky has a dog face. His cranium is round, his eyes set far apart, his nose is short and broad. The wolf has a long, narrow cranium, his eyes are close together and very tilted, his nose is long. Wolves are taller than huskies, with narrower bodies and wider feet.
Every now and then, we have a rash of pet disappearances; primarily among huskies, German Shepards and Elkhounds, which also carry close wolf characteristics and coats. The investigations nearly always lead into a black market ring of fur traders who are selling the beloved pets' hides as wolf skins. Just one side note on the husky and why its considered the closest canine link to the wolf. The husky doesn't have the same vocal chords as a dog. It can yap, whine and howl, but it can't bark. Nor can other dogs howl in the beautiful sing-song fashion as the huskies and wolves.

Karla do you see the wolves in plain view? Are they approachable? I grew up with the understanding that wolves were to be feared. We didn't do much woodsy outdoors type of activities growing up. Just frequented NY's polluted poor excuse of beaches. I do love the outdoors, and try to get as much out of it as I can. So I was just wondering, if I happen to run into a wolf, should I worry?

Maya, i've seen many wolves in the wild. They are incredibly beautiful and intelligent creatures. I felt absolutely no instinct to be afraid of them. I've encountered them as close as a few hundred feet away. They seemed as curious about me as i was about them. Smelling no gun powder on my person, they'd simply drop their heads and trot away. They can be a danger to dogs, but wolves rarely, if ever, attack humans.
When i was growing up, there used to be far more wolves within the vicinity. People often captured wolves as pups and bred them into their sled dogs until the practice became illegal. Even now, there are a great many dogs with wolf genes and some homes that own pure-blooded wolves.The wolves used to hang out just above the first mountain ridge in the winter, singing their tributes to the moon, when i was a youngster. The huskies and the coyotes on the Inlet would join them in their chorus. We owned a fat, curly haired Cocker Spaniel who would sit out on the porch and try to howl, although his acclaims weren't very impressive. It was then that my dad taught me about the differences between the vocal chords of dogs, huskies and wolves.

If there is one, not really. However if there are two or more wolves in your sight, it would not be a good time to try to act Alpha, nor move quickly, or make sudden eye contact.

There is this one wolf up here in Denali National Park, and I forget his name. He is very approachable. He enjoys human contact. It is theorized he is a Wolf/domestic hybrid because of his calm manner in relation to inter-action with Humans. He is also very much the poser for the camera. I will have to do some research, but some in the News industry call him the most documented wolf in the world by a camera.

And I'm sure karlsie would be more than willing to tell you about the Wolf farm near Sutton, Alaska.

I think that Two Socks, the wolf in Dances with Wolves, came from this Wolf farm. Although I could be wrong(?)

Those people at the wolf farm in Sutton are mean, Tom. They won't let you see the wolves for free. You have to pay to go in. This makes me sulk. Most of my wolf spottings were in the Denali area, although once, on the last mountain pass going into Valdez, we spotted a very unusual sight; two jet black wolves standing together on the slope, watching as we sped by. I think its' the only time i'd ever seen a black wolf, and then it was two of them together.
