Well, you have now.

Here he is, on his way back from surgery on his tail. He still hasn't fully regained control of all of his muscles, yet, due to the narcotic anesthetics.

Noticed his relaxed lips XD

Yes, wolves like to stick their heads out of the window and feel the breeze, too.

He was also far too stoned to make a jump for it, so I let him enjoy the sensation.

A factoid for all those wanting to work on exotic animals:

Giving a 240LB wolf (What he weighed) the equivalent anesthetic for a 240LB German Shepherd, will kill the wolf.

This is because, the wolf's system is still essentially wild, that is, not far removed from the wilderness. His personality might seem more, or less docile, but his nervous system is still very new to our synthesized human medicine.

That isn't to say worming medicines cannot be used, or vaccinations are prohibited, he was fully up to date on all his shots, and wormed.

But anesthetic is a different animal.

To put a wolf under for surgery, or any other reason, tiny doses must be given, a little at a time. I cannot overstate this enough.

Giving this massive wolf anesthetic for the equivalent of a Schnauzer may fully have put him under. It is much, much less for wolves. Experienced Exotic vets will often administer 5 or more doses of anesthetic, while closely monitoring the animal, before performing a surgery.

Another thing to note, when the surgery is complete, and the animal opens his, or her eyes, do everything you can to rouse it fully. It will take time, and lots of it, to get them to come around.

It is best NOT to let them recover on their own. Because the surgery is done and they are coming to, does not mean they are out of danger.

The anesthetic has circulated throughout their system, and is, in fact, still acting like a poison.

I was told by an experienced Exotic vet, to get them moving as soon as possible, to work "The poison out of their muscles and organs".

Just don't tease them with a turkey leg for an half hour, then accidentally ram your knee into their freshly operated on behind.

I still have the scar from being bitten.
