Nyssa was a black color-phase female born on May 12, 2004 and was tragically lost on May 11, 2005. When staff began bottle-feeding Nyssa, her younger age and smaller body size led staff to be very protective of this little pup. Care and efforts were effective as Nyssa grew into a very independent, muscular wolf. Her medical exams on May 6th showed her weight at 95 lbs, compared to Maya's 79.5 lbs. Nyssa will be most remembered por her intense behavior during the Center's feeding program. Nyssa dominated the carcass, not only mostrando dominance to her fellow pups, but lunging with full-teeth barred to the arctics as well.

For each wolf, tu will see a weekly photo, notes on behavior o physical health and a video clip. Please note, due to the large file size of the video clips, they will only be archived for 30 days. Text and imágenes from logs do stay with each lobo as they travel from pups, to the Exhibit Pack to Retirement and to the Gone but Not Forgotten Pack.

A knocking, loud and then soft.
A calling, sweet and tender,
I looked but it was gone
Sweet smells the granero loft.
A corner, around it went
The rápido, swift moves of a midnight wolf,
A panting, kind, intoxicating.
What a pleasure the moon lent.
I called it, but it disappeared
Through trees, forest, and caves.
Up and down did I search
Wondering what the message geared.
I was cornered, afraid and alone.
Touch, it reached to my heart.
Intense and nerve-racking
The green of its eyes shone.
And at the time of the gasp,
The midnight lobo was gone
With a rápido, swift mover of its tail.
And I, the hare, was loose of its grasp.
I thought and realized soon
What the message was about,
That amor is timid, yet a wild thing,
It only glitters in the moon.
And I thought for awhile,
Standing in the midst of a field.
When suddenly came the midnight wolf,
And the sight of it made me smile.

Maya, a Great Plains subspecies of the gray wolf, was born on May 5, 2004 and was a littermate to Grizzer. She matured to an adult female weight of 80 lbs. She was best described as the predator of the pack, if something is in quick motion, Maya was sure to track it and pounce.
Maya was euthanized Tuesday, March 1st, 2011 after a veterinary determination that a compound fracture and dislocation to her left hind leg could not be repaired. The decision to euthanize Maya was made in accordance with requirements of the USDA Animal Welfare Act and an organizational euthanasia policy approved por the Center’s Vet Care Team. Maya's death was a tragic loss and the dominance displayed por Maya will not be forgotten. She was a pack leader, and showed her status despite her smaller size.
