How can that guy be THAT comfortable with THAT many fangs near his face?

@coolvidzman because those wolves are used to him.

That muzzle grabbing behavior is what the beta wolves do to show that they are more dominant. So one of the to is maybe the omega of the pack.

why is the one wolf biting the other's nose??

[NativePrairieWolf]

LOL too funny, all that noise and it's all ritual

Yeah I'd be a bit concerned one might snap at another near my face and miss and get my face instead Ive had that happen with 2 dogs while I was eating, one climbed on my lap to check out the rice cake i was eating the other was nearby, the one on my lap gave a warning growl but didnt look down at the other and it was clear he made a mistake when he went to bite the other dog who was trying to climb up and got my lip a little but realized it fast

I love how Monty just grabs the alpha's mouth and the alpoha is all "Oh okay I cant bite you? I'll go back to biting this wolf" LOL

Yeah wolves grab each other's muzzle to say "Hey I'm boss not you!!!" And that's all they're not actually hurting each other. And the wolf handler whom I'm assuming is Monty is comfortable because these wolves "think" that this human is stronger than them. I don't entirely agree that the handler should have such a close bond to the wolves but that's his choice I guess. These wolves have also probably been raised since birth by humans giving them a slightly less chance to turn on them.
