Shy and concealed yet bold and bodacious. 

They stay hidden deep in the woods until
it’s time to strike. 

The wolves  p r o w l 
through the freezing forests of Canada
in pursuit of their next meal. 

They follow the herd of caribou and single out a young, sickly beast. 

They chaseandchaseandchase until BOOM. 

They deliver the final blow.

                                     ground. 

Its bleary eyes tell the tales of an inevitable fate; the sad reality of the eternal
relationship between predator and prey. 

The wolves make their retreat back into the woods, reflections shimmering on the lake, to resume their mystical lives concealed from the rest of the world.
