Participating in a howl is critical in a wolf pup's development. Pups might first begin to squeak out un-solicited howls at just a couple of weeks old. But once their ears open and hearing improves at around one month, wolf pups learn about howling as both a communication tool as well as a method of family bonding. Did we mention they're also really cute when they howl? Tune in to watch the red wolf pups now via live webcams: bit.ly/2F1Jqs6 | Wolf Conservation Center

The first few months of life are an important developmental milestone for wolf pups. They're learning about their surroundings, growing rapidly, and, of course, playing! Beyond being great fun for the siblings, the pups are sharpening important skills, strengthening family bonds, and establishing their social status within the pack.
