Buck(XI)

Buck was born (circa 1983) to captive timber wolves in Julian, California's wolf rescue center. His parents were descended from Rocky Mountain wolves that roamed Glacier National Park in Montana. Staff members from Steve Earl Martin's Working Wildlife later adopted him as part of their cinematic and television animal sanctuary. His first film appearance was in Dances with Wolves (1990) starring Kevin Costner. He performed as Two Socks along with his Working Wildlife inmate Teddy the Wolf. Both wolves also made a guest appearance in an episode of "Star Trek: The Next Generation". Teddy also served as Buck's body double in Lassie (1994). After filming "The Jungle Book", Working Wildlife retired Buck to Lucerne Valley, California's Wolf Mountain Sanctuary. He remained there until his death (circa 1998).
