Canis lupus

Grey Wolf

Grey wolves inhabit forests, tundra, grasslands, mountains, and semi-arid regions across parts of North America and Eurasia. They are highly mobile carnivores that hunt hoofed mammals such as deer, elk, and moose, while also taking smaller prey and carrion when available. A single wolf relies on endurance, sharp senses, powerful jaws, and quick lunges to seize vulnerable prey. Their howls can carry for many kilometers and help maintain contact across wide territories.
