For wolves, grooming helps strengthen family bonds.
When Ambassador wolf Silas licks and nibbles Nikai, not only is Silas keeping his brother's fur clean and free of debris, but his grooming efforts are gestures of intimacy that reaffirm the unique emotional bonds that shape the foundation of the family.
Because when it comes to wolves, it's all about family.
Silas and Nikai are captive-born gray wolves at the Wolf Conservation Center (WCC), a 501c3 non-profit organization, in South Salem, NY. The siblings are 'ambassador wolves' at the WCC that help teach the public about wolves and their vital role in the environment.
If you want to watch Silas, Nikai, or the WCC's critically endangered Mexican gray wolves or red wolves in live time, visit our live wolf webcams at nywolf.org/webcams. If you see something cool, let us know!
