Two Common Wolf which have arrived from Moscow Zoo, will be on public display from Saturday, September 8th. Tama Zoo used to keep Korean wolves, but stopped keeping them after the female died in 1999. This time, as part of a reciprocal donation in exchange for a pair of Oriental White Stork, a male and female Common Wolf wolf have arrived from Moscow Zoo. After health checks were completed, they will be on public display. The male was born on May 7, 2000, making him one year old, and the female was born on May 9, 1998, making her three years old.
Common Wolf is a subspecies of Common Wolf. It is distributed in central and northern Europe and Siberia, and lives in forests, plains, mountains, and tundra.
Along with the public debut Common Wolf, we are accepting name suggestions for the two wolves. The submission period is from September 8th (Saturday) to September 16th (Sunday). For details, please see ZooExpress email newsletter No. 24. Two people who voted for the winning name will be randomly selected to receive a commemorative gift! (Photo shows the female)
