The exhibit for the surprisingly large timber wolves in Hannover Zoo. This picture shows about 40 % of the exhibit. The wolves will soon get a new exhibit in the new Yukon Bay theme.

Those wolves sure are dark in colour, which is something that I've rarely seen in North American zoos. The vast majority of the time the wolves are greyish white in colour, with the odd black one.
 
Yes, the majority of the wolves here are black in colour. For us that have only seen European grey wolves up to this point, the timberwolves seem huge:eek:
 
One of the former directors of Hanover Zoo was a huge fan/"collector" of melanistic animals; as far as I know, some of these wolves (of the Mackenzie Valley subspecies) are descendents of that very "era".
