Un œil en coulisse

Beauval’s first wolf pups

“Un Œil en Coulisse” introduces you to three arctic wolf pups, Torok, Kiana, and Kenaï, born on the 29th April 2019. 3 weeks after their birth, the pups were taken to the veterinary service to check up on their weight, their general health, and to determine their sexes.

The arctic wolfpack

A family with a strict hierarchy!

Arctic wolves live in packs of 5 to 12 individuals, with some groups even including up to thirty or so individuals! Within these packs, only the dominant couple reproduces. At Beauval, Nahele and Remus have taken up this role following the birth of their 3 cubs.
