Im willing to bet there is some tampering going on. The body looks nothing much like a wolf - more like a large dog.
If you fiddle with the levels in Photoshop that section does look really suspicious (though Im no expert).

[I have no expert knowledge on photos, wolves, or the photographer in question. But I like a good bet, especially in the pursuit of science!)
If you clarify your definition of "real" then your bet may become more enticing.
