The Grey Wolf (also called the Timber Wolf) lives in North America. It is commonly found in areas such as national/provincial parks including Jasper National Park in Alberta, Canada, Algonquin National Park in Ontario, and Yellowstone National Park in the USA. It is primarily a forest-dwelling creature, though it isn't all that uncommon to see wolves in the prairies.
Western Europe and Mexico: The Gray Wolf has largely disappeared from these areas.

United States: After being listed as federally endangered, the populations here grew. However, in areas where this protection has been removed (such as Idaho), they face an uncertain future. There are about 5,000 wolves in the lower 48 states.

Alaska: An estimated 7,000 occupy this area.

Canada: There as many as 50,000 here.

Other areas: Other wolf populations are in Poland, Scandinavia, Russia, Portugal, Spain, and Italy.
The gray wolf lives in a number of habitats like the dry shrub lands, mountains and dense forests.

One of North America's most iconic native predators, the gray wolf used to be found throughout the United Sates---from the forests of New England to the coastlines of the Pacific Northwest. Centuries of trapping, hunting, and poisoning, however, decimated the wolf population, and by the 1980s, there were only a few small pockets of survivors left in the continental United States.

Efforts to reintroduce the gray wolf to the Northern Rockies in 1995 ultimately succeeded and by 2005, the population had finally climbed above 1,000 animals. Despite this encouraging recovery, there have been and continue to be attempts to strip them of their protections and allow even more wolf hunting.
