Highly commended – Siemens wolf in the Blue Mountains – The Siemens Wolf is the critically endangered. A public road crosses the Sanetti Plato in the Bale Mountain National Park. The Siemens Wolf’s became used to vehicles and it is quite easy to photograph them from this public road. They only become active in the mid-morning and their main prey are ice rats, also a critically endangered mammal.
