Had the experience myself, great isn't it. When I went the male took a dislike to one of the party and it was good to watch his body language, however they had to ask the person to leave as they were worried it was not safe, seem to think they were a bit bigger than the one in the photo was it an adult? Could be my imagination remembers them as being bigger as the were so impressive, thing I remember as much as anything was the mobile ears and although lighter in bone and longer in back than the Elkhound how simular the general impression was, the body attitude and interaction. In structure they are very like the Sibs, sure with the coat groomed it would be hard to tell the difference.

Which one did you go to as I think there is more than one.

Was that the one down near Upton Forest? I went there! We met Dakota and Duma - one of the best experiences of my life. The wolves were wonderful and afterwards we got to see the others too, back at the Trust.

Your photos are excellent - much better than the ones I got. Here is one though:



There is another one up near Bedford that we want to go to also. The guy who runs it did a behaviour session with us and Loki.

If these are indeed the Reading wolves - Duma and Dakota were North American wolves and seemed a bit smaller than the European wolves they had back at the enclosure. But they didn't have their full coat, so would appear smaller anyway, plus they were female so average weight about 60 lbs, but they can be smaller.
