I decided to turn the Boreal Forest (Small) map into a gigantic wolf exhibit. I will get some full pictures of that later, but reading up on the wolves being territorial gave me this idea.
First off, I am only starting with two gray/timber wolves, a male and a female. My thoughts are that if they can create their own wolf pack, as in the wild, they won't be as keen to kill off the other wolves. However, one or two wolves might be introduced later for breeding purposes.
Second, because the exhibit is so large, they will not feel overcrowded, so this should please them quite a bit and make them less likely to act up. I did have a jeep tour going through at one point, as some of the pictures show, but it is now gone. I might bring in a sky tour later on...
Later on, I might attempt to bring in a second wolf pack to share the exhibit.
So, without further ado, let me introduce you to the first two wolves in the huge exhibit.
Keiru: "Alpha" male of the pack. He's mostly seen running around the exhibit as fast as he can. When the jeep tours were in, he used to chase the jeeps.

Sachi: "Alpha" female of the pack. She's playful, but mostly stays around the den and food bowls. She doesn't seem to enjoy exploring.

The pack has begun!

just a suggestion starwolfie: you could also subscribe to the thread :)
This looks very interesting Kiseki! I can't wait to see how the pack goes, it's a good idea to just see how the animals go on their own and document on it, nice work! :original:

Aww.... this looks like it will be a good pack. wolves are one of my favorite animals!

After some consideration, we now have two packs going. :juggle:
The "Feather" pack, which is the original one with Sachi and Keiru, and the "Waterfall" pack, which is a new pack located on the other side of the exhibit. Actually, the Feather pack is more loctaed in the middle of the exhibit... this might get interesting if the two collide.
Sachi gave birth to two new pups, Kicho and Mizu.

The Pups are sooo cute! How do you come up with the wonderful names?:original:

The Feather names are mostly Japanese... (Keiru isn't)
Sachi is the short version of "happy child," Kicho means "tree butterfly," and Mizu means "water."
The English names I just came up with randomly. :blushing:
-

-
This is such a great idea, very creative. I love your wolves and especially their names. They are original, I like that. : :) : Great pictures too, beautiful.
-
Can't wait to see more of what happens. I did that once with the hienas but It was not sucesfull I guess. The dominant female kept on hunting down all the females that bred with whichever male. It was very realistic though.
-
This is awesome! Wolves are probably my favorite animal in game!
-
i can't wait to see more photo's!!
nice idea!
