Description
Female arctic wolf (Canis lupus arctos, vlk arkticky) from ZOO Brno, Czech republicSmall size, because larger version was a bit blurry. But I love her face so much
____________
INFO ABOUT THE ANIMAL:
Name: Arctic Wolf (Canis lupus arctos)
Location: Canadian Arctic and the northern parts of Greenland
Size: 1.8 m long, 79 cm high weight: 75 kg
Diet: Caribou, musk oxen, Arctic Hares, seals, ptarmigan, lemmings. Arctic wolves eat all their prey, also its bones and fur
Conservation status: common. They still live in the whole of its original range, because local conditions are too extreme for humans.
Interesting facts: mother gives birth to some 2-3 pups in May. Pups are born almost black – as they get older, colour of their fur turns to white. Adults are completely white, even in summer | arctic wolves live in the pack of some 7-10 members. Only alpha male and alpha female mate | arctic wolves have shorter ears and nose than other wolves species. They also have thicker fur, shorter legs | they do not run too fast, their advantage is persistence

And human rights violations deserve our attention. hunger and starvation deserves our attention. Pollution of land and undrinkable water deserve our attention. Massive disparities in wealth deserves our attention. Hatred and barbarism deserves our attention. Greed and theft deserves our attention. Privatization of water deserves our attention. Marginalization of entire peoples deserves our attention. Exploitation and abuse deserves our attention.

and your conclusion is....?
that I should not post photos of wolves, or delete them, if they become too popular? XD
I do not see your point and I really do not know why you posted such comment under my photo
YES, there are maaaaaany wolves shots on the front page. It so nice you noticed. Congratulation. Wow. AND...?

Yes, of course I was suggesting that you should delete your work when it becomes to popular.

oh, I see. You are simply not gifted in ,,speaking clearly about the point".
If you want to tell me something, TELL ME.
But you came and said only ,,so many wolves photos on front page." Wow, genial idea! You are right! There are many of them! Wow! You noticed! You are amazing!
And I am so HAPPY that you took your time and decided to tell me, that you noticed!
Once more: WHAT - did - you - mean - with - that?

I dont think responding any further than this is necessary as this is most obviously not productive. I think that you overly angry and self-concious and that trying to explain myself will only lead to you throwing out more insults.

if you are describing me as ,,self-concious", you are really funny and obviously know nothing about me
I just do not like, when somebody is wasting my time
If anybody wants to say anything, it should be said clearly

thank you very much for support - this person has only few views on its works, so it is probably frustrated and jealous
Thanks pal

Pageviews are like currency in my country.
Seriously though....im pretty saddened by what you wrote. Are you really suggesting that someone would be envious of another over number of page views? I believe that that shows exactly what is meaninful to you. Enjoy your bowing sycophants and E-popularity.
