DENVER (CBS4) - The Denver Zoo has released two new wolves that have been in quarantine.

They are maned wolves and arrived from other zoos in September. Now they've been cleared and have been out exploring the wolf pack woods.

Despite their fox-like appearance, they're not related to foxes, nor are they related to wolves, despite their name.

Maned wolves are actually the largest wild dog in South America.
