Once upon a time, there “was” three little pigs and a big bad wolf. At, first the pigs were skeptical with moving next to a wolf's house, for obvious reasons. The first pig built his house out of straw, the second pig made his out of twigs, and the third pig made his out of concrete.

Yellowstone Wolves Around the late 1920’s bounty hunters from the government exterminated the park’s last native wolves as part of a national wolf extermination program to protect the farmer’s livestock. In a exert from an interview Scott said “These animals themselves have not killed livestock, and don't know how” and “ They'll learn how to kill wild prey from these older wolves that we're putting them with” so the wolves have not killed livestock because the will learn how to eat wild prey. I believe the wolves should stay in Yellowstone. I believe the wolves should stay in Yellowstone because they help out the ecosystem. In 1955 when the wolves were reestablished into the park the elk population was around 18,000 .With…

Survival in the wild is strenuous for all living beings, even for those adapted to nature. Wolves, even with their strong statures, their powerful senses of smell, and their sharp canines are no exception. Storms, fires, starvation, pollution, and other animals are just a few of the dangers of living in the densely packed forests that wolves tend to make their habitats. However, although humans have their own needs to take care of, kind and determined people can go the extra mile just to protect and nurture weaker animals, despite the difficulty of doing so. Some of these goodhearted people have invested in creating places of shelter for injured and sick wolves who are unable to return to the wilderness.…
A wolf can consume between four and thirteen pounds of food a day, but is capable of consuming up to twenty pounds of food in a single sitting (Kurta 208). An individual wolf can manage two weeks, possibly longer, without food (Swinburne 7). An emphasis is placed on teamwork within the pack when the pack has not eaten well recently, especially when the pack becomes larger. A pregnant wolf has a gestation of roughly 63 days, producing around five to seven pups upon delivery (Kurta 208). Wolves may began breeding between two and three years of age and continue to breed until ten years of age, but…

Wolves, a marvelous sight to see either in the Rocky Mountains or Yellowstone National Park. However, per Source #7, the Gray wolf was included to the U.S Endangered Species List in 1973. The government worked to increase the population and succeeded. But now in two states, Idaho and Montana, the Gray wolf has been removed from the list and can be hunted legally. Nevertheless, since there are Gray wolves in the wild, there is debate, should the Gray wolf population be protected by the government?…
