The wolf science center is not only work, sometimes we are also invited to some evening activities. Like on Tuesday evening. Herr Mag. Johannes Senger, the pharmacist of Ernstbrunn, a sponsor of the WSC and the godfather of Yukon, and his family invited us to a movie night in his barn. We watched “The boy and the wolf”, a sweet wrongfully not known movie about the life of reindeer breeder in Siberia and their life with the wild living wolves.
Not only the staff of the WSC was invited, also some people of the game park, Dr. Gumpinger and wife and friends. It happened that there was a nice little group of people who spent there evening with good food, drinks, nice talks and of course the movie. Thank god for the beautiful barn, also the thunder storm with cloudburst couldn’t ruin the nice evening.
Although the rain in the last days was not really welcome to the people, it was a nice possibility for our wolves to cool down a little bit. Despite nearly all wolves lost their undercoat by now, the hot weather bothers them a little bit. So the motto of the last few days was, sleep sleep sleep. It’s the best way to stand the sun at noon. Only when the trainers come, the heat is forgotten and everybody waits excited at the slides and at the fence. Although there are 30 °C outside everybody wants to be the first to go working in the test building.
