Description
While on our holiday to Spain our friends drove us on a very scenic route to a Lobo Park.
The LOBO PARK located in the heart of Andalusia, Spain was founded by Daniel Weigend and Alexandra Stieber (both originate from Germany) as a private initiative in 2002 (open to the public since November 2004) with the ambition to establish a wolf park that is unique in its configuration. It is the intention of the owners that all wolves as well as all the other animals live in an environment that was built to protect as much of the existing flora and fauna as well as to ensure that their living circumstances are as related to real nature as possible. The �mission� was to give these fascinating animals the respect that they deserve. It is of great importance that they have huge enclosures to live a life that is almost equivalent to a �natural� environment - to live their genuine pack life without interference of human intrusion or domestication. App. 100.000 m² have been reserved for huge enclosures for the wolves to provide as much space as possible to roam and play. Only through this effort can one truly observe how wolves live.
Respect is being given and trust is its return!
The way the wolves are socialized allows visitors to see and perceive the wolves as they are in the wild. To socialize the wolves the two, Daniel and Alexandra hand rear their pups. This is a very important phase in the very young life of these extraordinary animals. At the same time it is being explained very clearly that the wolves are not being domesticated because the intention of the owners is to maintain their true �wild animal� behaviour and character. As Daniel says: �the wolves are not meant to be pet animals we only want to take away there natural shyness and fear of human beings.� During the guided tours you may get the drift of an unforgettable experience when Daniel enters one of the vastly set up enclosures to visit his wolf friends. You observe no submissive wolf when they greet each other as friends, on the contrary they will howl together to reinforce their friendship.

Fantastic capture, what a beautiful creature!
Amazing capture! This is fabulous. Again, I was thinking you'd already moved on from your Spain shots! It's nice to see you back. :)
Bravo Alan you got a great deal of sharpness as I assume from the small reflections it was through glass. And always heartwarming to hear such conservation going on for these wonderful creatures.
Supereb! well done!

lot of detail on the photo and imformation
excellent portrait Alan ! It is an outstanding artwork. Thanks for the informations too ! I'm glad that places like this one exist !
Danny - no not taken through glass but IMO worse - through large wire-fencing! I have tried a little covering up in small places with the clone tool. Far too many of my wolf shots taken that day are not worth posting because of the fence!
Sorry I
