DARK WOLF
This is truly a treasure of the Southern
Hemisphere. Located in the constellation of Scorpius this Dark Nebula is known as SL-17 ‘Dark Wolf’ or ‘Fenrir Nebula’
Not very often imaged, not even available on Wikipedia and certainly does not show in my phone Astro app. Had to use Aladin to get the correct location and coordinates. 
so I'll as you: Can you see the wolf? I would say yes, it certainly looks like a Wolf, however, it also looks to me like a South American ‘TAPIR” go and google it to see what I mean. Hope you like this.
