Just the name "Lakota" sounds wild and free. But Bonnie, you have to tell us more! Where were they? Where were YOU? Are the running free, enclosed? How did you get up so close? Love the eyes and the howling. I would love such an experience.

The Lakota Wolves are at Camp Taylor in Columbia, New Jersey.  The compound was set up specifically for photographers and visitors.  I paid a chunk of change and went with one other person for two and a half hours.  The compound has a double fence and the inside fence has portals for photographing the wolves.  Of course, our guide was there throwing treats over the fence.  The wolves are used to the drill and we were told if there are no photographers, they begin howling after 15 minutes to get someone to come.
