Original caption

Nobody has ever seen an alpha wolf in the wild. Only in cages. The alpha wolf was only ever observed in captivity, strangers fighting for rank in an enclosure. In the wild the pack is a family and the lead wolf is just the father, eating last and breaking the trail. A generation of men built themselves on cage behavior. #masculinity #leadership #fatherhood
