Rafa arrived at Wolf Connection as part of the ‘Minnesota 4’—along with Anora, Leo, and Ozma—rescued from an alleged fur farm where they endured challenging conditions and minimal human interaction.

Rafa’s demeanor and behaviors suggest he possesses the qualities of a male Shaman, reflecting a deep, intuitive connection to his surroundings and a natural sense of leadership and guidance.

He is particularly fond of observing program students during their visits, displaying a keen interest in their activities. His curiosity extends to interacting playfully with the people who feed him, often engaging in games and showing his playful side. His interactions with humans highlight his growing comfort and confidence, as well as his ability to form meaningful connections.
