New strange pair of wolves in the Tamarack territory
Starting in the middle of last summer, we noticed a strange new pair of wolves roaming around the Tamarack Pack territory. One of the wolves had a really funky short tail that made identifying this pair on camera pretty easy.
Turns out, this was just like the beginning of H.G. Wells posthumous novel “The War of the Wolves”. Ok, poor attempt at humor but it was the beginning of an invasion of sorts.
This new pair took over and claimed the Tamarack Pack territory this fall. The Tamarack Pack, which is just a breeding pair, was ousted from their territory and became wanderers.
After being displaced, the Tamarack wolves shifted north a bit but still appear to be traveling together and are likely defending a new territory just north of their old territory. Granted, it is hard to tell right now where their territory may being and end.
In the end, this is just how wolf pack dynamics work. Packs occupy and defend territories until another pack comes in and removes them. The Tamarack Pack may well have ousted a pack to get the ‘Tamarack territory’ in the first place and now they have been ousted by another pack.

They are skinny I sure hope they find something to eat soon. Still gorgeous wolves love watching them. Thank you for the privilege.

If I didn't know better, I'd say 5heres some coyote in the mix.

is the curled tail a birth defect? maybe from inbreeding?

It's all just a little push and shove! Perhaps that wonky tail is the result of an accident..

Fascinating watching the social behavior of these wild animals. Looks like any couple going out for a walk, with one looking at the other to keep up.

Interesting dynamics. Wolves have a lot of adjusting to do in their lives. They are more adaptable than I thought!

Did a wolf mate with a coyote or german shepherd? Can you get any DNA? Maybe a bobtail gene mutation that's naturally occurring? Ancient genes?

What happened to the tail?

what an interesting couple! I hope they can settle down and form a larger pack
also, isn't this the second time we see newcomers with short tails? which other pack was it that had members with relatively short tails, I can't remember, I know you posted a video about it at one point. I wonder if it's a genetic oddity from a nearby territory and the short-tailed family starters are originally wanderers from there…

Looks like a little in-breeding going on. That tail ain't normal.

Name the wolf, "funky" or "bob"/"bobtail"
It deserves a name.

Cruel world for wolves. They parents use their children as soldiers for those "wolf wars"
