The occasional timber wolf is black. Like the black leopard, it is somewhat rare, but is a timber wolf in every other way. Actually, for this elusive night hunter, being black is a distinct advantage.
Here, in the liquid moonlight, the great black wolf pauses in his midnight vigil. His ears alert, his golden eyes searching the dark, his sensitive nostrils testing the air, he waits for another sound, sight, or scent to explain what he has just picked up on the night wind.
If the clues hint at caribou, he will raise his muzzle in a howl that tells his family pack: "This way, this way!" And soon answering howls will fill the air and other wolves will appear to join in the age-old pursuit of food. Wolves learned long ago that only by cooperating in the hunt could they hope to bring down large game like caribou, moose, and elk.
Affectionate, cooperative, loving to their young and pack members, wolves long have been nature's most misunderstood animals. To help us better know these intelligent and beautiful wild creatures, artist Vivi Crandall presents another sensitive and amazingly realistic wolf portrait.
The creation of the fine collector's plate you have just acquired and whose authenticity is certified by this document is the result of work by an international cadre of skilled artisans. After the plate art was created in the United States, a fine ceramic transfer, incorporating pigments carefully chosen to faithfully re-create the vibrant beauty of the artist's original, was created in France and Germany and permanently fired into the fine Japanese porcelain plate body at more than 1,460° Fahrenheit by talented craftsmen and craftswomen in the United States.
