4. Range and habitat map
The gray wolf was
once the world's
most widely
distributed
mammal, living
north of 15°N
latitude in North
America and 12°N
in Eurasia
5. The wolfs diet
Medium and small sized animals
that may supplement the diet of
wolves include
marmots, beaver, hares, badgers,
foxes, weasels, ground
squirrels, mice, hamsters, voles
and other rodents.
6. The physical description of a wolf
Gray wolves are slender, powerfully
built animals with large, deeply
descending ribcages and sloping
backs.
Adult wolves are 105–160 cm (41–
63 in) in length and 80–85 cm (32–
34 in) in shoulder height
Gray wolves have very dense and
fluffy winter fur, with short underfur
and long, coarse guard hairs
7. Breeding info
In areas with low wolf densities, wolves
are generally monogamous.[71] Mated
pairs usually remain together for life if
one of the wolves does not die
Multiple litters are rarely successful, due
to infanticide by the pack's females.
8. Special behaviors
wolf packs are often portrayed as strictly
hierarchical social structures with a
breeding "alpha" pair which climbs the
social ladder through fighting, followed
by subordinate "beta" wolves and a low
ranking "omega" which bears the brunt
of the pack's aggression.
9. Weird info
Wolves howl to assemble the pack
(usually before and after hunts), to pass
on an alarm (particularly at a den
site), to locate each other during a storm
or unfamiliar territory and to
communicate across great distances.
10. Conclusion
Wolfs have a lot of info on them and are
cool the end.
