Minnesota’s International Wolf Center Needs Help Naming Its New Pups

If you've ever had a pet, you know coming up with just the right name to match their personality is sometimes kind of tricky. Which is why the International Wolf Center is asking for your help in naming their two new wolf pups.

The International Wolf Center is located in Ely, Minnesota. And, earlier this year, and is all about helping us understand and appreciate the wolf. According to their website, "The International Wolf Center advances the survival of wolf populations by teaching about wolves, their relationship to wildlands and the human role in their future,” says its mission and values page.

And right now, they're taking submissions on what they should name these incredibly cute wolf pups. Right now, they're being called Wolf Pup 1 (aka "Axel") and Wolf Pup 2 (aka Grey Back)

And, anytime you name a pet, you have to take their personality into account as well. Click HERE to read about the two pups, and to enter their Wolf Pup Naming Contest. The site says the winner will get a package worth over $300, including a one-year membership to the International Wolf Center, two tickets to see the pups in person, and a variety of “fun wolf-themed merchandise.”

But you have to hurry-- the entry deadline is Friday, June 24th at 11:59 pm.  Here's a live stream from the International Wolf Center...
