Wolves React To Gamekeeper Who Had Been Away On Maternity Leave

“WHERE’S YOUR PUPPY! WE WANNA SEE YOUR PUPPY! DID YOU JUST HAVE THE ONE? DO YOU HAVE THEM WITH YOU? ARE THERE PHOTOS?”

I’m not a hundred percent positive but I’m pretty sure this is the wild life center where I visited wolves.

And the safety briefing included the question “So if you’re pregnant, do you want to know or not?”

Turns out there had been a bit of an awkward situation once where the keepers had casually mentioned a woman’s pregnancy in a group, and she herself didn’t even know yet. Turns out the wolves are excellent at telling if you’re pregnant and the keepers can tell based on their body language.  They get all odd and careful around pregnancy. (Even wolves knows that you have to take care of pregnant people.)

So they definitely knew she was pregnant.

And if I remember my BBC documentaries right, a wolf will leave the pack to give birth and introduce the cubs to the pack once she feels ready for it. And maternity leave is flexible but often around 6 months so they’re going “YOU WERE GONE FOREVER! WE WERE SO WORRIED! WHERE ARE THE CUBS?? WE HAVE TO GREET THE CUBS!!“ 

Also the two on her back are fighting over who gets to greet her first. Giving and receiving attention is a commodity that goes by hierarchy and if you don’t accept that there will be scuffles.. The wolf lying down next to her isn’t chill about her coming back, it’s just submissive to the other wolves and waiting for it’s turn to show excitement.

Now I can see why we domesticated these adorable jerks.

Wolf packs have maternity leave?

Wolves: better than American companies.

“what do bi and ace ppl have in common?”

blasian-bitch
mentioned you on a post

“bi/ace solidarity posts are just another tactic to divide the…”

@millenniumfae What experiences do we share lmao?

im either bi or ace and im leaving u to decide which one;

  • mistaking that you’re one instead of the other for much of your younger years
  • struggling with the realization that you feel the same way about everyone, regardless of gender
  • fearing coming out to your dates, even if they’re lgbt+/queer themselves
  • facing violent (and often sexual) hatred commonly misinterpreted as something else, therefore minimizing it
  • specific objectification and (de)sexualization based off of plural orientation
  • being of color and struggling further with the connotations that arise
  • being trans (and specifically nonbinary) and having to further struggle with how gender relates to sexual attraction
  • being excluded from supposed safe spaces because of your identity
  • having constructed safe spaces invaded by exclusionaries
