Hello Gnasher - what I asked was - would it turn into a "type of wolf, a feral dog or what?" It gets quite complicated all this theoretical opinion, I only raise the question, but I maybe should have added in as long as a wolf didn't get in there and mate with one of the females.

Is it allowed for flatcoats to associate with sarloos, csvs, huskies, malamutes, etc. etc. - Oh dear my head still hurts - this time I really am going. Nite Nite

Currently the Estate is building a couple of small wolf enclosures for privileged guests of the Estate so they can gawp at a few captive wild animals.

Unfortunately man is incapable of treading lightly and is obliged by his own greed to rip up the earth and exploit it for his own pathetic gain.
I believe, today, the Ramblers lost their case in court and the development of the estate is now able to go ahead. The judge said there is plenty of land for Ramblers and this land will be securely fenced so no wolves are wandering away from their land.

I hope it becomes a success. It will certainly be interesting to see.

Sadly, I have to agree with your last sentence. It shouldn't be so, but it is.

Oh dear what an ignorant judge, but then perhaps he likes visiting a big Zoo, or did he get a backhander ? - Is he going to help shut the Pandora's box - Sorry it is just how I feel about wolves and other animals being caged, exhibits and all that (even if it is a big cage) The land won't be "their land" it belongs to the landowner.

Provided they don`t let Shaun Ellis in, what is the problem with wolves being kept in enclosed `wild` areas?
Sadly, isn`t it the only way to protect them from being shot these days?
