| Selected Cute Photos of Our Wolves! |
![]() |
January 7, 2004. Jessica just pointed out that we needed a webpage of just wolves! Well, what better way than to gleen a few from the Photo of the Day page! So, here are a few photos of our wolves. As I get them, I'll keep adding until all our wolves are represented on this page of wolves! About Picture of the DayEstablished January 23, 2002, this page is dedicated to the goings on at Wolf Park and occassionally elsewhere when Monty travels about the country and abroad. This page is a response to all the calls, e-mails, letters, faxes, mysterious notes pushed under doors in the middle of the night... about when Wolf Park is going to get a webcam. Well, we are working on it, and have been working on it for many years now, so don't hold your breath. We are kind of out in the boonies and getting something like that is either going to take a very generous donation (which we would much rather use on the animals than some old webcam where you may, or may not, actually see anything... So, when Monty went 'digital' in late 2001, he realized that it would be a simple matter to just post a nice photo of a wolf, or something, on the website every day or so. OK, so it took a few months to come to this realization, but when it did, this page was born. There are just a few rules with this page. The photos MUST be ones taken on that one day. Actually, that is about the only rule. The photo may, or may not be posed until later in the wee hours of the night after midnight and so what you see here is usually going to be photos taken the day before. In fact, we generally try to post the photos late in the evening so that there will be at least some semblance of consistency to when you are most likely to not miss anything. As for the content, well, the photos might be of a wolf, or two, but they may not. For that matter, the photo may, or may not be taken at Wolf Park. At times, the photos may not be even taken anywhere near Wolf Park when Monty goes on vacation to some distant land (which he does often does do...) So, in such cases, the actual time the photo was taken can vary depending on the time zone the photo is taken in, but it will be a photo taken on THAT DAY in that time zone.... It is also important to note that despite the fact that the pictures posted here have to be taken on that one day, they are sometimes posted really late at night, or even early the next morning, so you might see old photos still up if you are a night owl. Just keep on checking, for eventually you will see current photos of the day. Using These PhotosThe photos you see here are for personal or educational use only. They are not to be used for commercial purposes without express permission from the photographer, usually me, but sometimes Jessica, Andrew, and others at Wolf Park who may take the Picture of the Day photo. Feel free to copy the images to your computer, make personal screen savers, computer wallpaper and the like with them, but if you want to place a photo on a website, even a personal one, you will need to ask permission to do so. If you are a student working on a wolf-related project and you would like to use some of these photos, please contact us for permission first, just to be nice.

E-mail about photo questions in general to monty@wolfpark.org or to ask Monty for a specific picture of the day request, you can try reaching him at websitephotos@wolfpark.org, but it sometimes takes awhile for him to get through his e-mail...
