Arctic Wolf: Silent Guardian of the Tundra in Captivity

Arctic wolves are given spacious enclosures in zoos that replicate the open, rugged landscapes of the tundra. Their habitats often include rocky outcrops, dense foliage, and plenty of space for roaming and socializing, as these animals live in packs. Zookeepers carefully observe pack dynamics to ensure harmony among the wolves.

Their diet consists of lean meats, bones, and occasional enrichment items like carcass feedings to simulate their natural hunting experience. Behavioral enrichment, such as scent trails and hidden treats, keeps their keen senses sharp. Zoos also educate visitors about the fragile ecosystems of the Arctic and the importance of protecting this species' natural habitat.
