In terms of body language, wolves have a broad repertoire. Body language is their main tool for solving conflict within the pack, and pack leaders impose their rank through their posture and facial expressions. Yet wolves also communicate through scent and sound, as their legendary howl shows.

The “Wolf” is the fifth coin in our dramatic Colourful Creature series, which explores the wonderful world of wildlife. The glow-in-the-dark coin becomes active at night, but that is not its only extraordinary feature ― all 12 coins in the series are the first ever Austrian 3 Euro coins. One side of the coin features the silhouette of all 12 animals in the series; the other shows a colour-applied image of a Wolf that glows in the dark.
