Bite Force of a grey wolf: video

saw this on National Geographic. Is it just me, or does that woman look like the same woman from the tv show on animal planet Growing up Wolf?

You know what? I think you're right. The narrator refers to the place they're at as 'the center', and calls the woman Peggy, right?

I have the Growing Up: Wolf show recorded on my TV, so I pulled it up and starting watching it. The show took place at the Wildlife Science Center in MN, and the woman that takes care of the wolves is named Peggy Callahan.

Very good observation you made there, pawnee. 8D

It would be nice. But then, I don't suppose the wolves would be 'Growing Up.' :roll:

Animal Planet has a TV show called 'Growing Up: *insert animal name here*'

The hour-long program basically follows a young, captive animal as it grows from birth to adulthood.

I recorded Growing up: Wolf from Animals planet too b/c I waited FOREVER to get to see it! It was a good show. That bite force is kinda scary b/c like the guy said, it wasn't even really an attack bite, just a defensive bite. :shock:

yeah, it said 406! Less than a crocodile, but probably more than a Rottweiler.
