Wolve Portraits and landscapes

     The Wolf, the Predecessor of the Domesticated Dog is feared and presumed fearless.  He is symbolic in the Literary sense.  The Wolf is an empowering Friend and Foe of Man.  His Iconic 'Howl" is a testament to his empowerment
and Supreme place in the Wilderness.  His biggest struggle is the Endangerment of his Existence. The legacy of the Wolf's existence as he has been the subject of heated Courtroom battles with Sheep Farmers and other Cattle Ranchers. The Wolf is symbolic in Poetry and Literature.  He is dramatized on our Television sets as a Wild animal to fear and that if Humans are bitten by a Wolf they will become one.  This Gallery in its description is titled "Cry Wolf" that is in reference to a Society that can become desensitized and the consequential apathy in response to something that happens repeatedly resulting in Complacency. This could lead to detrimental and even disastrous results when the real Imposter (the real Wolf)  suddenly appears. Another Cry this time for the Real Wolf.
     The History of the Wolf is a long one and the Wolf being both Worshipped and feared  covers Centuries even Millenia and beyond of stories of the Wolf's interaction with Mankind.  They have lived with Man and through Man's protection of the Wolf (The Endangered Species Act  ESA ), they still exist in their struggle to survive. 
     Of the near 18,000  Wolves that exist in the US, 11,000 of them are in Alaska. Wolf and Wolf packs in the lower 48 are in only 7 States mostly in the Northern Half of the Country.  The ESA back in 1973 increased the number to 7,500 in the Contiguous US. I n the year 2022 the Wolf  decreased in number as reinstated by the ESA the Endangered Species Act. The States being in Alaska, Michigan, Oregon Montana, Idaho,  Wisconsin and the Yellow Stone Park area where the number of Wolves is less than 3,000
As for my Gallery there are many variations  of Wolves and subspecies . These are just some of the most acknowledged Wolves with the Red Wolf in jeopardy of extinction
