Flashback to September 2010 . . . Amur tiger Uri at Nordens Ark wildlife park in Sweden. Over the years I took more than 400 pictures of this magnificent boy, who was born at Linton Zoo in Cambridgeshire, UK. He passed away in 2019 at the age of 14.

The European grey wolf (Canis lupus) was once found throughout the northern hemisphere. Today its range is more restricted, but it is beginning to spread in western Europe. I took this picture at Nordens Ark in Sweden in June 2019. #greywolf #canislupus #wolf #nordensark #canine #wolvesofbluesky
