Biography[]
Balto II: Wolf Quest[]
The red and white wolf first appeared when Nava called a clan meeting to discuss the lack of caribou and Balto and Aleu's presence. When Niju insists that Nava has lost his ability to lead, the red and white wolf asks him why he would say such a thing. Later he is seen during The Grand Design scene, when Niju was trying to convince the clan to stay.
The next morning, the Icebridge had completely formed. When Balto realises that the clan had to choose right then between leaving or staying, the red and white wolf insists that Nava and Balto were right all along and is the first to follow them. When Balto told the clan to partner up, is it likely he chose the dark brown wolf.

Trivia[]
- Unlike popular belief, the red and white wolf is not named Taku or Vike; he has no confirmed name.
- The Balto fandom tends to believe that he loves Aleu, however, both characters never interacted and it is not official either!
- It is not likely he ever joined Niju's rebellion, considering his personality and the animation quality of the movie; his design was one of the most common designs the animators defaulted to in some scenes featuring Niju's rebellion.
