I made a topic awhile back about the International Wolf Center, but this topic is a bit different. A couple days ago I discovered they upgraded their still webcams to live webcams. So I thought it would be fun to see what screenshots people can capture. Here are some of mine.

This is Denali.

This is Luna.

This is Shadow and Malik, two Arctics who are retired from the exhibit pack. Shadow is to the right and Malik to the left.

I really can't identify who this is in the shot, but my guess is Malik.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, this is not Malik, but Shadow.

Here is the link to the live webcams: http://www.wolf.org/wolves/webcams/webcam.asp




Identifying The Wolves

I'm no expert at this, but I can at least give you my best.

I'll start with who I know best, and that is Shadow and Malik, the two retired Arctics.

Shadow - The international Wolf Center posted a video on their YouTube channel on how to tell the two part, but I find that it becomes a lot more difficult to tell the two apart on a webcam than on a video, as their eyes are a key. Shadow has more "round" eyes, while his brother Malik has almond shaped eyes. On a webcam this almost becomes impossible to see, at least to me. But that's not the only way to identify the two! Since eyes are hard to see on a webcam, I go by the shape of their face. Shadow has more of square face than Malik does.

Malik - Malik's face is more diamond-shaped compared to Shadow's. The tufts (is that proper?) on the sides of his face give him that appearance. His face is also a lot more thin than Shadow's.

Here is that video. Skip to the 5:00 mark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36D0dG58s-Y

Luna - As I said above, no guess work here. Luna is a young female Wolf who is black in coloration.

Boltz - Boltz is the litter mate (not from the same litter) of Luna. Since Boltz is still a juvenile, he is still filling out, as so his muzzle. I find that the key feature to Boltz is the grey fur on his face. Unlike Aidan and Denali, the grey fur going down the bridge of his nose is more pronounced. He also has dark grey lines that go from his eyes to the sides of his head separating the grey from the white fur.
http://www.wolf.org/wolves/experience/m ... ?Wolfid=26

Aidan - This is probably a silly and not a better way to identify Aidan, but Aidan has eyebrows XD
http://www.wolf.org/wolves/experience/m ... ?Wolfid=24

Denali - He is a bit of a hard one to describe, but I will do my best. If you look at the photo I posted of Denali by his nose, you can see three black dots. These are probably scars on his face. But this isn't a very good way to identify him. Compared to Aiden, Denali' grey fur on his face doesn't go all the way down the bridge of his nose. It rather stops in between his eyes and then blends in with the copper colored fur on his nose.

Oh awesome topic idea, Mighty! For some reason it never occurred to me that someone else might know about these cams. I haven't visited them hardly at all in about 4 or 5 years. I have a ton of caps, but they're all on my laptop that's under going some maintenance. Will have to try to take some more of my own again sometime. 8]

And I love your caps! 8D

Well, I can't see any at the moment, but thanks for sharing this, Mighty! It's really cool! Your screenshots are great! I'll be sure to post some of my own if I get a chance. :3

lol Yeah, after dark (the INWC is located in Minnesota, so they are on central time, FYI) the webcams can't be seen; it's too dark. But you're welcome, and thanks! Good luck on spotting any!

I have some old screencaps of their old still webcams that took a screenshot every four seconds. Here they are, actually. http://imageshack.us/g/21/greetcam3.jpg/

And thank you! Looking forward to seeing what you may capture!

Awww, I love these two: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/824/malik9.jpg/ & http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/403/malik7.jpg/

Really wish I had my laptop now cause there was some great shots I'm sure of it. ...Though some might not be appropriate to post here. Some of my favorites included feeding time I think. Lil bit bloody. ^^;

I don't think there would be too much of an issue.
