Wolf enclosure
Imagine you are watching me in the wolf cage.
You took the above photo and many more.
You watch me make my 2nd mistake of the day – lie on my back.
I found out that day that wolves like me. Really like me.
You formulate a question and wait until I leave the enclosure.
You ask :
At what point did you regret going into the wolf enclosure?
Looking back, I think it was exactly at the point the first picture was taken.
Ten years before that day
A very strange thing happened to me at work.
I left my id badge on my desk. When I went back to get it, my boss was using it.
He was tracing round my face with his mouse.
That is not a euphemism.
It was a primitive drawing program for the PC. My boss was using the face on my id to test it.
He printed off the work he had done.
This was on a dot matrix printer, so you can imagine how impressed I was.
A good caption can wait
I took that piece of paper with my traced face and added a caption.
I hung it on the wall so everyone would see it as they entered the office.
“Spot the idiot competition.”
No-one understood what I had done or why I had done it.
Yet I predicted with my caption my time in the wolf enclosure many years in advance.
There is a wolf rescue center up near Cripple Creek in Colorado – here it is .
They rescue wild wolves and offer tours for fools daily feeding tours allowing you to go in with the wolves.
I went in with a fist full of raw meat.
One of those things I didn’t regret but wouldn’t do twice.
I would totally go in a wolf enclosure, but would probably pass on the raw meat perfume just in case…

I played the game of passing it from one hand to the other so they would try to get it… I soon stopped playing that game …

As much as I would love to play with wolves, I don’t want to get in between them and their dinner.

Sounds like an awesome experience. I’ll make a note to do it in my next life (minus the tease) 🙂 !

Hmmm, a game with raw meat and a wolf. I think I’ll pass, lest the wolf realize that I am a walking bag of raw meat.

I didn’t realize till afterwards that maybe I shouldn’t have done it. My wife filmed it in a state of shock

Added to my bucket list. I got to hold some newborn wolf pups years ago. They were sleepy fur balls of cuteness.

Yikes. That’s a lot to think about. Seeing the wolves close up? Amazing. But seeing the wolves close up?? CRAP.
