DID YOU KNOW?
The Howling Wolf: Wolves howl to declare territory, call pack members to a specific location or strengthen social bonds. Small packs tend to howl less than large packs, so as to draw less attention to themselves.
The Frightened Wolf: A frightened wolf will try to make itself look small and inconspicuous by flattening its ears against its head and tucking its tail between its legs.
Ancestor of the Dog: It's generally accepted that the domestic dog evolved from the gray wolf. All domestic dogs came from Old World gray wolves; North American gray wolves were never domesticated.
Awesome Jaws: A wolf's jaw can exert 1,500 pounds of pressure per square inch — that's twice as strong as a German shepherd.
