Keeper Anita spent nearly two years socialising wolves in Norway’s Polar Zoo back in 2008. After an absence of two months she returned to be greeted by the pack.
For your 1:56, you get a bit of Christian the Lion mmf, followed by the prolonged and unnerving sensation that something is going to go terribly, terribly wrong any minute.

It’s an adorable ad for Sony Xperia smartphones, with director Wes (Royal Tenenbaums, Fantastic Mr Fox) Anderson shamelessly (and pretty effectively) exploiting the squee.
Anderson has a bit of form in this area, having teamed up with Brad Pitt back in 2008 for this Jacques Tati inspired mobile phone ad.
Above: Hogan, Burton and protestors at the National Stadium on Saturday showing the number of people they claim won’t pay the Household charge.
Minister for the Environment Phil Hogan last night flatly contradicted a statement made earlier in the day by Minister for Social Protection Joan Burton.
She suggested at lunchtime yesterday that arrangements were being made to allow people to pay the household charge through their local post office.
Ms Burton also described next Saturday’s deadline for the payment of the charge as “ambitious” although she urged people to pay by the deadline.
Mr Hogan told The Irish Times later that there had been no change in the arrangements for payment of the charge and no change in the deadline.

Existential, yes.
But exactly what type of bird?
Thanks Conor Emerson
It just gets better and better.
The Department of the Environment has said that post offices are not collecting payments for the household charge over the counter and no arrangements have been made to allow this.
