The maned wolf is graceful and yet a bit awkward at the same time. Often referred to as a fox on stilt, they are native to the central portion of South America — mainly in Brazil, where I photographed this one. They are mostly nocturnal and I used a dual flash setup and a ground level perspective to capture this image at night. Nikon D700 with Nikkor 17-35mm lens (at 35mm) ISO 200, f/8 at 1/60th of a second

Nice wolf. Looks like a fox. Where’s the mane?
He looks rather dainty and tentative. Sweet portrait.
beautiful
oh what sight, looks like he has trouble getting around.
