Is the wolf in the wolf room a real wolf?

Some wolves in Wolf Totem are real and specially trained by the crew.

After the film started shooting in 2009, it took a year and a half to train the main character in the film-Wolf, and also set up a wolf base in Beijing to concentrate on training. Finally, 20 "wolves among wolves" will be selected from the delineated 100 wolves.

Several "Wolf Stars" in the film immigrated to Canada after filming. The team of Canadian animal trainers who have been with wolves for three years have deep feelings for wolves and strongly demand that Mongolian coyotes be brought back to Canada.

1967, Stark Chan and Yang Ke, educated youths from Beijing, responded to the call of the country to go to the countryside and jumped the queue from Beijing to the Oroqen Prairie in Inner Mongolia. On the prairie, they met Bi Lige, a Mongolian herder, and saw the most awesome animal on the prairie: the wolf.

In the process of contact with wolves, Stark Chan became interested in this species and even had the idea of raising a wolf cub. At this time, a group of foreigners greedily plundered the antelope stored by wolves for the winter, which broke the ecological balance between wolves and herders.

The production team headed by Bao Shungui, director of the field department, launched a campaign to kill wolves, which put the relationship between wolves and humans in a tense situation.
