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

What a brilliant shot (and title to match ^^ )
It caught me off guard at first as in the preview it looked like a painting. And as always I'm so jealous of how lucky you are at getting to see wolves so often.
