Default Way to spend your time!

"The younger wolves in the pack would come right up to us, and they would come up to our camp and empty our rucksacks - you would wake up and find your clothing spread all over the place. They were very inquisitive," explained Mr Hoskyns-Abrahall.


Arctic explorer Jim McNeill, who worked with the crew and kept a diary of his experiences for the BBC News website, was particularly taken with one young wolf who he nicknamed Lucy.
He said: "The highlight for me was one afternoon when the crew was off filming.
"Lucy came near the camp and I spent the best part of an afternoon with her in spectacular sunshine. We just shared a space - it felt extremely special." He added: "I've been exploring this area for 25 years and to spend this time with these animals gave me another perspective on Arctic life.
Fascinating. I always had a soft spot for wolves, from childhood on. E. Zimen was standard literature for me when I was a boy.
