Eastern Wolf

Red Wolves The Red wolf, scientifically known as Canis rufus, is a close relative to the more commonly known, Grey wolf. The Grey wolf is the one typically used in fairy tales while the Red wolf is not. The Red wolf has a cinnamon or tawny red coat with some grey and black markings. Their back tends to be darker and their tails tend to have a black tip. Red wolves are smaller than their close relatives, the grey wolf, but have longer legs and shorter fur.

The Maned Wolf The legs of a deer, the face of a fox, and the body of a wolf, what is it? The maned wolf is an interesting animal that not many people may know about. It can be described by what it looks like, its eating habits, and its social structure. Despite its name this animal looks more like a fox rather than a wolf and has even been described as a “fox on stilts”. But, this unique looking species isn’t closely related to either. In fact, the maned wolf is the only member of its genus,…

Both articles have really good information about and why should we protect wolves. Well, of course, it doesn’t come right out and say it. I think the second passage, “Wolf Family Values” is the article I am picking that has more information about the wolves. Why? You may ask is because, the first article, “Scared to Death” has about the elk and what happens when the wolf population came back. The second text is more about the wolves, and they are all about. “Once upon a time, folklore shaped our…

Ethically, they show how wolves have in fact been misunderstood by society to the point that they are being sought out and…

Now there are people that are hunting wolves in the state of Michigan for pure sport, and many of the population oppose this. The Gray Wolves have been struggling for 50 years on the brink of extinction. There are now less than 700 wolves in Michigan. The Gray wolf and or subspecies of the gray wolf (the Timber Wolf) has been undertaking many infringements on it’s rights, struggling to stay on the endangered species list instead, being knocked down to just ‘threatened.’(“Michigan.”) After over…

As the famous saying goes, “Bears would be bears”. Okay. That’s not a saying. But whether you like it not, no one would ever dare to stand toe-to-toe with a massive 7-footer, 500-lb, fanged, fury mammal. Even the bravest hunter would rattle in fear when a wild, hungry bear had its eyes fixed directly onto him while in ready-to-attack beast mode. Who would have thought that a fury brown grizzly would tear your apart for lunch? Freaky! But don’t worry folks. No matter how hungry and outrageous…
