Hello friends who love science and nature, today I am very excited to show you this new post. To do this, I traveled to the Mafra forest reserve to visit a place that has wild Iberian wolves in freedom. It seems like something uninteresting, but in reality, the probability of seeing a wolf in the wild is so low that on average it takes 2 years... Incredible, right? Will I be able to break the statistics and photograph one today? Don't miss it...β›°οΈπŸ€“πŸΊ

Hola amigos amantes de la ciencia y naturaleza, hoy estoy muy emocionado en mostrarles este nuevo post, para ello viaje a la zona de la reserva forestal de Mafra para visitar un local el cual tiene lobos ibericos salvajes en libertad, parece algo poco interesante pero en realidad la probabilidad de ver un lobo en la naturaleza es tan escaso que en promedio demoras 2 anos... Increible no? sera que hoy consigo romper las estadisticas y fotografiar uno? no te lo pierdas...πŸš΅πŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ“Έ

What is the ecology of the Iberian wolf?πŸΊπŸ€“ /Como es la ecologia del lobo iberico?β›°οΈπŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“

The Iberian wolf is a subspecies that was discovered by a Spanish scientist named (Angel Cabrera), its scientific name is "Canis lupus signatus" we get it in the Iberian Peninsula, in Portugal it is only found in the wild in the north, it is not the same species that is distributed in the rest of Europe since there are variations in the coloration of the fur, being Canis lupus signatus more colorful and with more vibrant tones, also in size it is smaller! It is a carnivorous mammal, and is within the group of (canids).β›°οΈπŸ€“

About the protection centerπŸΊπŸ€“ /Sobre el centro de proteccionβ›°οΈπŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“

Here everyone has their opinion on the subject, there are people like me who think that it is not correct to have animals in these spaces and that the best way is to place them in their habitat, however our guide explained to us that they do not have reproduction within the facilities, meaning the animal does not have the reproductive capacity and they are wolves brought here due to complaints, injured animals, animal exploitation, among other cases! Later, the respective work is done so that the animal is out of danger and it is left in the facilities since they do not have the capacity to survive again in nature, in addition to the fact that the protection reserve does not have a field to put the animal in the wild since they do not have the resources. In reality, it is private companies and the public who maintain this facility.πŸ€“πŸΊ
Aqui cada quien tiene su opinion respecto al tema, hay personas como yo que opinamos que no es correcto tener animales en estos espacios y que la mejor forma es colocarlos en su habitat, sin embargo nuestra guia nos explico que ellos no tiene reproduccion dentro de las instalaciones osea el animal no tiene la capacidad reproductora y son lobos traidos aqui por denuncias, animales heridos, explotacion animal entre otros casos! posteriormente se hacen los respectivos trabajos para que el animal este fuera de peligro y se deja en las instalaciones ya que no tienen la capacidad de sobrevivir nuevamente en la naturaleza, ademas que la reserva de proteccion no tiene un campo para poner el animal en vida silvestre ya que no tienen recursos. En realidad son empresas privadas y el publico quienes mantienen esta instalacion.πŸš©πŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“

Alarming dataπŸΊπŸ€“ /Datos alarmantesβ›°οΈπŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“

Previously the Iberian wolf was found throughout the Portuguese territory except for some areas of Alentejo where the landscape is flat, but over the years the animal was hunted and its ecosystem was destroyed, which led to a reduction in its territory. The animal's personality does not facilitate coexistence with humans. The Canis lupus signatus species is not shy about preying on prey that is daily used for human consumption. This behavior causes humans to kill them to protect their food. It is enough that the animal was hunted by man throughout its history and they developed a very high sense of human detection, they can recognize our scent and sound from kilometers away. Normally this species is very afraid of man and rarely attacks a human!πŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“πŸ“Έ
Anteriormente el lobo iberico se conseguia en todo el territorio Portugues exeptuando algunas zonas de Alentejo donde el paisaje es plano, pero con el pasar de anos se fue cazando el animal y se fue destruyendo su ecosistema lo que llevo a reducir su territorio, la personalidad del animal no facilita la convivencia con el ser humano, la especie Canis lupus signatus no tiene timidez en depredar a presas que cotidianamente se emplean en el consumo humano, este comportamiento hace que el ser humano los mate para proteger su alimento, basta con que el animal durante toda la historia fue cazado por el hombre y desarrollaron un sentido de deteccion humana muy alta consiguen reconocer nuestro aroma y sonido a km de distancia. Normalmente esta especie teme mucho al hombre y rara vez ataca un ser humano!πŸΊπŸ€“

Do you know what this is?πŸΊπŸ€“ /Sabes que es esto?β›°οΈπŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“

You've probably seen spiked collars on dogs to scare them away, but not these designs! Do you have any idea what they were used for? Let me explain: to avoid killing the animal, man understood that a large dog is enough to scare away a wolf, however, the wolf is an extremely intelligent and strong animal, socially structured, several can distract and attack at the same time, when they attack a dog they do it on the neck... And this is where the collar has an important role, it doesn't hurt the wolf and it doesn't allow the wolf to kill the dog, therefore "it's an interesting symbiosis", our guide tells us that they are still used today.πŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“πŸš©πŸ€“
Seguramente habias visto collares con espinas en "perros para intimidar" pero no estos disenos! tienes idea para que se usaron? te explico para evitar matar el animal el hombre entendio que con un perro de porte grande es suficiente para ahuyentar un lobo, sin embargo el lobo es un animal demasiado inteligente y bastantemente fuerte estructurado a nivel social, varios pueden distraer y atacar al mismo tiempo, cuando atacan un perro lo hacen en el cuello... Y aqui es donde el collar tiene un roll importante no lastima al lobo y tampoco permite que el lobo mate al perro por tanto "es una simbiosis interesante", nuestra guia nos dice que hasta el dia de hoy se utilizan.πŸ˜πŸ“Έ

In search of wolvesπŸΊπŸ€“ /En busca de Lobosβ›°οΈπŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“

Our guide, after the introductory talk, takes us outside to photograph the wolves, clearly if we are lucky. As we walk, he explains to us that the fences have a shape where they cannot climb or dig, everything is properly secured for our visit. There are two wolves for each hectare of protection, they are kept separate to avoid fights. In addition, each animal has a name and is identified by sex. The guide shows us a photo to identify the name.πŸΊβ›°οΈ
Nuestra guia luego de la charla introductoria nos lleva afuera para fotografiar los lobos claramente si tenemos suerte, mientras caminamos nos explica que las cercas tienen un formato donde ellos no consiguen trepar ni excavar, todo debidamente asegurado para nuestra visita, hay dos lobos por cada una hectarea de proteccion, los tienen separados para evitar peleas, ademas cada animal tiene un nombre y esta identificado con el sexo la guia nos muestra una foto para identificar le nombre.πŸ“Έ

Successful sightingπŸΊπŸ€“ /Avistamiento exitosoβ›°οΈπŸ§‘πŸ»β€πŸŽ“

And mission accomplished, I managed to see a wolf. This is a rather shy female. The guide told us that we were very lucky because this specimen rarely shows itself. Apparently she was curious, so I managed to photograph her! I think that capturing this moment was worth the effort I put in and traveling more than 40km! It is such a beautiful animal, and well, I must admit that seeing a wolf for the first time in the "wild" is the best experience of all.πŸ€“πŸ˜
Y objetivo cumplido, consegui ver un lobo esta es una hembra bastante timida, la guia nos dijo que tuvimos muchisima suerte porque este ejemplar es raro que se asome, aparentemente tenia curiosidad por eso consegui fotografiarla! creo que retratar este instante ya valio la pena y el esfuerzo que puse y viajar mas de 40km! es un animal tan hermoso, y bueno debo reconocer que ver un lobo por primera vez en estado "salvaje" es la mejor experiencia de todas.πŸ“Έβ›°οΈπŸΊπŸΊ
