Gray Wolf Close Up

In this photograph taken at Yellowstone National Park, a gray wolf stares into the camera. A wild intelligence is clear behind its golden eyes.

In January 2020, Yellowstone rangers counted eight separate wolf packs in the park itself, comprising 94 individuals. An estimated 528 wolves live in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, which also includes Grand Tetons National Park and much of Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho.
