Wow a wolf exposed belly! Not to many people are going to get that privilege in life!
It shows that he trusts her 100%
Yup it truly takes a special kind of person to be able to interact with wolves like these ladies.
jody024 you got there 1st ;)
Shelly Goswami go sell crazy somewhere else
Yep, I have done that many times. Wolves can be very playful. They love being petted.
what a lovely, cute, adorable, scary, vicious predator
lol
krisantus liang lol. Exactly what I was thinking.
The sweetest deathmachines
And two wolves
Krisantus liang If you think they're scary, never meet a wolf. Truth from both sides is fundamental to exist friendship between humans and wolf. If you don't trust him but he trusts you, it will be unfair because he was trying its best to make friends and he will probably kill you. But if you notice that you trust the wolf but the wolf doesnt trust you, I think you should run as fast as possible even though it isnt enough.
that kekoa wolf is fucking huge! like a direwolf size
@C A P Dire wolves were actually only slightly larger at roughly 75 kg.
@Greatest ever In game of thrones they're the size of a small horse so that beats actual fossil records I guess. Suck it!
Trust me, it’s just the fur making them look big. In the summer they look very skinny when they shed their thick coat. They had another wolf (black in colour) that looked bigger than Kekoa, but was only 27 kg (60 lbs). McKenzie Valley wolves are the largest wolf and they rarely weigh more than 63-68 kg (140-150 lbs.)
Male timber wolf will typically weigh around 110lbs, female around 90lbs. They're not really much bigger than a full size German Shepherd. But all their weight is bone and muscle. Shepard's typically carry alot more fat
Dogs evolved from wolves like this! It's just hard to believe this was ancestor to chihuahua...
And a female wolf can have fertile off spring with a chihuahua is the crazy part.
I sometimes look at a chihuahua, or a pug, and wonder..."What the heck did we do to the mighty wolf?!"
Even crazier to think that pugs were one of the first ever dog breeds!
ensayofr The problem with that though (assuming a male wolf could even fit itself into a chihuahua) is that if the mother of the offspring are too small, the puppies can actually grow too large inside the womb and kill the mother canine.
Evolution is a freemasonic lie sorry
wow it is HUGE. When it sat down next to her sitting down you really see how big that wolf is. You never really notice how big they are on videos until now. If she is an average size human then my lord that wolf is so freaking huge. And imagine dire wolves were bigger.
Animals used to be huge, then humans with weapons came to climb up the food chain ^^
Actually as the earth changed animals got smaller as the big ones tended to die out from a lack of food. Interestingly, humans were also pretty short a few hundred years back. We've gotten taller. I don't think humans affected the food chain enough to affect wild species size. However the domestication of the dog did make the size smaller so that it was more manageable along with less testosterone and a host of other attributes that took generation after generation to get right to make the dogs we see today.
meh.its probably the size of a small puppy next to Gandalf and she is the cousin of froddo.i mean u never know
Or maybe it's just us that are small. It's a matter of perspective, really.
I'm 12 and this is deep...
RIP Kekoa 😞 You we’re such a good boy. I hope you are running with Sakara now.
Wait, he died?! When?!
@@RBZ14DCA almost a year ago. He was 15
@@colettemiles1454 Wow. He lived a long life for a wolf.
@@RBZ14DCA most all the wolves at the Center have a long life. We love them all.
Beautiful lady, beautiful wolfs.
Never saw a wolf wag its tail before.
This is a Czechoslovakian wolfer, not a purebred wolf. Это же Чехословацкий влчак, а не чистокровный волк.
Contradictory to popular belief, wolves does wag tail, just not as often as dogs. They are rather cautious animals so wild wolves rarely wag tails around humans....
To all the people saying that the wolves will attack them: Wolves attack humans for the same reasons that humans attack humans(and, I realize, the same reasons a human would attack a wolf). Fear, violation of territory, and as it turns out, revenge. Wolves are no more dangerous than humans, and as both are persistence hunters, they can mutually understand certain signals. The wolf displaying its belly is signalling submission, for example, which means that it poses no threat to the woman.
They also know how to interact with the wolves. They crouch down, speak gently, make no sudden moves, hold out their bare hands below snout level so the wolf can sniff them, and never reach over the wolf's head.
Submission or comfortable
The wolf was also signalling, "Scratch muh belly, pleaze"
Adrian Halls I agree with you, I look at wolves as a spirit animal to guide us threw life and the fact that some people think wolves are the evil and is the devils pet really makes me angry
@Brendan Cronin a dog will to if you provoke it 🙄
Kekoa must have spent his entire life around her for him to trust her that much.
He was bottle fed as a pup and spent his whole life with people.
@@mikew9096 no he wasn't she went out into the forest an gained their trust which ys not easy but can be done this is how we got dogs by capturing the heart of wolves then evolution takes place boom new species
@steve hazard i would
@@dalegend4573 Just stop. According to the Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center that shot this video, Keoka was indeed bottle fed. He is unusually human-friendly for an adult grey wolf. The idea that Danielle or anyone else went out into the forest and gained the trust of a wild grey wolf (and said wolf's pack) is utterly ridiculous.
@@dalegend4573 Keeks was raised as an "ambassador wolf" to use as an educational tool. Unfortunately, he passed away a month or so ago. Was a very kind and loving animal. I've been in with him a few times, he was in love with my ex wife lol. Most of the animals at CWWC are rescues, but a few of them are there specifically for educational purposes
What a loving and beautiful video capturing how kind and intelligent wolves are to these humans. Just amazing and beautiful ❤
this is how our ancestors managed to capture the hearts of wolves...thanks to them we now have dogs
I would prefer a wolf than a dog
Illusive Man a wolf wouldn't bother to pleased you
@@ceterumcenseo12 Thats debatable. They have grown to numbers they never could have possibly had we not domesticated them. Also they have become one of, if not, THE most beloved animal on the planet with most people (which don't own puppy mills and abuse dogs) treating them like family. I wouldn't blame an entire race on the greedy who try to exploit people or animals for their own financial gain.
@joe pir Look Joe, I get what you are trying to do...I clearly care about dogs...but once you're asking "what would you do's" and going back in time, you forget the reality of why dogs were domesticated in the first place and who is at fault for much of their neglect. This hypothetical situation that you've created in which you inserted numbers and statistics completely unsubstantiated isn't very useful. You're trying to argue something in hindsight as well as arguing what would be "best". That's never what we were arguing about. You argued that them evolving to be dependable on us was a bad thing for their species... At the end of the day, the numbers of abuse you've thrown out are ones you've made up to prove your point. I'm not saying it isn't high numbers but notice how I don't throw numbers out, I just try to make logical assumptions. I've watched countless pro vegan/vegetarian documentaries showing animal cruelty beyond dogs and pets. Dogs were domesticated to help with hunting, protection, work, and then companionship. It's a modern trend to buy dogs just for enjoyment, and the vast majority of animal owners don't abuse their dogs. As animal rights laws get stricter as they have substantially in just the last 100 years...dogs will increase in number and abuse will go down...
@@ceterumcenseo12 Sorry Joe. I think our conversation is gonna end here. I'll continue getting my research from studies and data. And you can continue watching KZhead videos and drawing conclusions. Have a great day, man.
That wolf really trusts you to show it's belly.
I love how the wolves are just like giant dogs, licking hooman face and demand a belly rub. So cute
How beautiful and gentle they are..
he was raised around humans, this is atypical behavior
TheDarkalkymist Yes, very atypical, wolves should never be pets.
no true wolves have ever attacked people hybrids and coyotes or raised by human ones do not natural wolves so these ones are about as dangerous as they get educate yourself
Spoken like a true city boy that has no actual experience with these animals. They are wild and thus potentially dangerous, but as has been mentioned below, there are 0 accounts of Wolves attacking people.
That's because no one lived to tell the story
Pure love and 100% trust. So beautiful
I'm ENVIOUS! Such beautiful and magnificent animal! Such precious moments!
I never realised how big these creatures are, beautiful relationship
Ohhhh, these wolves are so incredibly beautiful! What a truly amazing experience, being able to interact with these creatures... if I can ever get to Colorado, I will definitely make a visit to your sanctuary! I love wolves... they get such a bad rap, and they just don't deserve it.
Who gives them a bad rap? Everyone loves wolves. They'll rip your limbs off but we all love them.
In east Europe a wolf is still considered the enemy. Biologists let grown wolves loose now and then just to find a hunter on the front page of the newspaper showing off the dead carcus with him smiling like a hero.
Unfriendly wild wolves, especially hungry ones, and an entire pack at that might quite possibly "rip your limbs off", fortunately, many wolves demonstrate great potential for friendship, and so we have dogs. Noting that, the selective breeding of dogs encouraged friendlier individual organisms over more aggressive ones. I'm glad the wolves in this video are extremely friendly with her. They have friendly doge potential.
Lmao
POINTTWOFIVEMOA why all caps lmao
Beautiful animals. Loved when the wolf just fell over for a belly rub!!
omg that giant wolf Turned into a doge
The perfect dog he just wants some attention
They're simply adorable!
I just love how we are all getting along
Every person who loves and protects an animal shows his great spirit. Thanks
I am native American Indian and I love wolves. They're facinating, intriguing and interesting. I feel as though they are my family just as my spaniel and terrior Chihuahua fur babies are. I believe that humans and wolves can live/ co-exist peacefully together in harmony.
Hâlâ yerlilerin yaşadığını bilmek beni biraz sevindiriyor.
Love the attitude these ladies displayed... so sweet and caring!
I might cry, it’s so adorable!
That's what happens when you let your daughter watch twilight
Still a better lovestory in this video here.
Hey if this is what happens to you if watch twilight somebody give me a link!
Game of thrones!!! you mean
LMAO
I have the dirtiest mind and I thought of something else
Wow, I didn't realise that wolves were such an angelic animals lol
this made me smile a little too much
Wolves are huge when shown next to a person.
rarecharisma when not, they are too
There are domestic dogs who are 'thicker', so they look bigger in pictures by themselves but when you see wolves next to people you realize how big they really are.
Lol, they're HUGE period...The only ones I've actually been around are at my state's wildlife rescue and preserve. But, I have seen and been around plenty of coyotes since they've made their way back into my home state of West Virginia during the last couple of decades or so.. I've hunted and fished almost all of my fifty-five years of life, in almost every state east of the Mississippi. It's quite unnerving to be heading to a tree stand before dawn and hear coyotes tracking you on both sides (lol, that's the reason I no longer use any type of "doe-in-heat" spray to cover my scent as I move through the woods). Along with the "Big Cats," and black bears that inhabit this part of North America, wolves have to be one of my favorites. I hope I get to see some in their natural environment before my days here are done...just not treating me like coyotes have done lol. If one garners their attention, along with their size, you're fixin to have a very bad day. Being mostly Native American (along with a bit of Western European for flavor), I'm being totally biased in saying that the wild animals that call North America home, can't be eclipsed by any others. I would urge anybody to vacation here at home rather than overseas just once. What you'll find outside your back door is nothing short of breathtaking...(and yeah, I'm still being totally biased). Apologies for the "rant," if anybody has made it this far.
Also, there's a vid here on KZhead that shows a Husky, or a similar type dog, barking at an almost all black wolf that's crouched down on it's belly. It'll absolutely amaze you when it stands up...it's friggin huge (and the crypto-paranormal people have used this vid in a bunch of different ways, so pay no attention to that stuff...it's simply one big-ass wolf).
Delightfullydemented65 send the link or name of the video If u know
I would love to meet those wolves. What a couple of sweeties! They are very social animals and love attention.
What a beautiful wolf. The name suits him, too. My German Shepherd's name was Kekoa.
Yea, I'm from Hawaii and it's a common boys name "The Warrior"
Yeah, that's why I named my dog that. I used to live there myself, Kahaluu (our place overlooked Temple Valley).
What a amazing and majestic animal and obviously Danielle is soooo beautiful.
After seeing that wolf sit next to her...wow the comparison in size! They're huge!
Those are the most forbidden of belly rubs. Only a truly worthy and trusted person gets such an honor.
I wanna be friends with wolfies too 🥺
She is so L A R G E And so is her heart
They are both truly beautiful 😍😍🐺🐺😍😍!!
I sooo needed this tonight!!! They are absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous!!!
so hard not to see them as silly domestic pets when they are really wild predators. I love wolves, and seeing them trust you so much that they roll over and expose their belly for rubs is one of the ultimate rewards
Just goes to show all dogs, no matter if big or small, love belly rubs!
Those creatures are huge. I really hope in my life sometime down the road i get to pet one of these even if its for a slight moment. They are so beautiful.
Those wolves dwarf her but look how gentle they are trying to be while they play the one even roles on his back to get her to rub his belly how lucky are these people to get to work with wolves up close to actually interact with them must be amazing
I love Wolves, their howling is my favorite sound
I'd have named him Sif'
Fuck yeah!
IUnderstoodThatReference.png
Praise the sun!
You mean her not him.
aye dark souls
The amount of hard work and love these caretakers put in is immediately apparent. I mean look at the size of the paws on that beast - it’s as big as her face! And for Kekoa to do the whole “Rub my belly mommy” thing is unreal for a full-grown healthy powerful wolf to do!
what beautiful creatures!
Love is the strongest thing in life.
Wow, that wolf got on its back and exposed its belly to the woman. There is an incredible amount of trust there to be honest. What an amazing experience!
Seen on Reddit and felt the need to comment on how amazing this is!
It breaks my heart the people can't understand what wonderful creatures are in the wild and it is our place in the world to protect them.
Jesus they are big
Thats what she said.
amazing video, I'm so jealous. It's just nice to see that mutual respect for wolf and human, knowing that the wolf could easily kill that woman if he wanted to. But they trust and respect each other and I think that's truly beautiful.
I'm SOOOO JEALOUS!!! They are so majestical. Big ol puppies ❤❤❤❤
Incredible animals.. beautiful beyond imagination.
Wolves are so beautiful!
Kekoa and Sakara, two precious individuals that we must learn from.
Such beautiful majestic animals!! 💖
So heartwarming! How can 18 people not like this??? Who are these strange persons???
Probably PETA since they do not like the interaction between animals and humans. Google how many pets they put down in their animal shelters rather than putting them up for adoption. This kind of video would drive them insane.
What an honor to scratch a wolves belly.❤️❤️❤️
haha aur musalmano ko deko pakistan mn atty k liye chinese se apni behno ka shadi karwa rhe 😂
everybody gangsta until they hear howling from more than one wolf
They act like a dog and I love it, being able to approach a wolf is rare without getting bite or dead and even touch them with you filthy hands are so like they really trust you not to hurt them.
Gosh they’re such beautiful creatures 😍😍
Wolves--the purest of souls
omg I love these guy if I lived in Colorado I would volunteer there. They are so beautiful!!!!
I'm simply in awe.
they're so beautiful ❤
So nice to see wolves interact lovingly with mankind. For a wolf to show trust by allowing her to scratch its belly is awesome. An act of submission...
wolf: I'm a big but still fluffy wolf cub inside.
Aww. That is so sweet!
Sweet Soul... The both of them.
fantastic!
Damn this girl is so lucky
They are amazing 😍😍😍
I love watching Kekoa and Sakara kissing and snuggling up to Danielle and her co worker. Such love and trust between the species.💞🐺
beautiful!
Aaawww sooo beautiful
I love Wolfs, he have a gorgeous Soul, so mystic and powerful. It's a great Present, when whe meet them. Thanks for uploading. Many Greetings from Germany 👍🇩🇪💕
Love love love this!! Need to head out to Colorado!! Love those names too❤️❤️ My 2 Siberian Huskies names are Kota and Sacari .. Wolves are so majestic and humans can learn many things from them. Many years ago I sponsored Lakota and Keoa the Sawtooth pack .. first pack reintroduced to Yellowstone. Thank you for all you do!!! 🐾🐾🐾🐾
Farley Mowat's Never Cry Wolf should be mandatory reading in my opinion. Most of human's destructive actions can be attributed to ignorance.
Too cute. I WANT TO HUG THEM
❤
this is too wholesome
Stunning!!
Danielle is beautiful....
Awesome!!!
So much love!!
Beauty. Congratulations and just so on. Thank you for all people...:-)))
I hope the "diseased" trophy hunters don't get them. They have no regard for species protected under the Endangered Species Act either.
Aquariel Charm North American Grey Wolves are no longer endangered actually. They're now classed as least concern.
Colorado Wolf & Wildlife is a private area and these wolf count as a property it would be a great crime if they kill him
Odi I hate hunting of any kind.Any life matters.Killing is a crime.Those sport hunters,what would they think if people kill them for fun ? They should think for the animals or else they will get karma.
You know your ancestors hunted, right? They didn't have a Kroger nearby. Get over it. You need food? You hunt. Simple.
@@seanjones2456 Difference is though, we aren't our ancestors and DO have stores and such nearby, and therefore no reason to go shooting wildlife, this is generally why we have farms for these kinds of things as well, to ensure humane methods are used on our meat products, when you kill a cow in a farm nothing bad happens, you just get beef, when you kill say a deer in the wild, you may have just also killed it's children and risked the life of it's predators, because in nature a deer with foals will need to be able to protect said babies, and a wolf for example might need to eat that deer to survive, because it doesn't have a shop filled with meat for it to buy. Basically put, we need food, we go shopping, simple.
VERY BEAUTIFUL! One of the most misunderstood creatures by mankind. Wolves play such an important part in every aspect of mother nature, including preserving the life of Forests. This one is STUNNING !!!
kekoa pawing at her like, "i play back, you know that right?" LOL, i love ya
This is amazing
How sweet!
Pure beauty .... Beautiful ....
WOW!! The fact the whole exposes its belly to her is insane!! That's absolutely amazing. Shows that that wolf trusts that woman ! Incredible
Wow what a gift
This is beautiful! I am so sick of how we are continually fed the lies as to how "vicious", how "mean" so many of our planet's magnificent creatures supposedly are. NO, they are not. It is humans who can be THE most vicious, THE most mean and! are our world's worst predators, over all. Thank you for this beautiful video - I love it. ♥
They have the right to live in their habitats. It's us who trespass.
@@Light-ji4fo Exactly.
que linda es Kekoa!
THAT IS SO CUUUUUTTTTTTEEEEE!!!!
I was entranced by the wolves.....and by Danielle
Tom Mitchell Not the only one....
I was entranced by a Daniel too once. It hurt to poop after that.
