Wolves along the British Columbia coast, known as sea wolves, survive almost entirely on marine resources, with 90% of their diet coming from the ocean. Genetically distinct from inland wolves, they swim miles each day in search of food.

Vรฉritable photo ร lโappuie รฉvidemment

Nature is amazing. Thank you!

In nature, if you want to learn, follow the food.
In human nature, follow the money.
We humans are not 'natural' beings. In Earth's environment, we are odd, but significant.

Awesome
-
They are also genetically SO CUTE LOOK AT THEM!!!
-
These are related to mermaids, in the evolution.

Thatโs so freakin cool

This is the same as my husky mixโฆ accept itโs because she has poultry allergies and has learned passive aggression to instigate positive reward loops.
-
They mostly eat salmon, with other food like crabs, otters and seals making up a lot of their coastal and river diet, they will also however hunt black tailed deer.
-
I live in the Northwest and Iโve never heard of this โฆ.

Ai generated wolf images ๐
-
Not a fan of the AI use here. But I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of a rain wolf family one early morning while hiking the Nootka Trail last hear. They're extremely skittish so once they saw us they promptly left the beach and returned to the bush but it was genuinely a life highlight.
-
So that's where the term "Sea wolf" comes from
-
I had no idea. Thank you.
-
Really?
-
What's your source? I'm not going to panic until you can prove it.

Thatโs why we must protect our precious environment ๐ Beautiful creatures like โ swimming wolves โ need a place to live !!!
