This just comes from the normal wear and tear of being a wild animal (or a captive animal that is allowed enough freedom to roam around). This is true for many animals. Wild horses do not need to get their feet filed, but if you abuse a horse by not letting it move around, the hard nail-like material will grow and grow to the point that they can't walk.
How do wolves adapt to there advierment?
Well, if some type of wolf that lives in a cold environment changes into a hot environment, it's most likelyhe can't adapt to the new conditions. But what can happen is that there can be 2 types of wolves.
Anyways, the ones that live in the cold have smaller ears and the fur is bigger. As for the ones in a less cold environment, they usually have big ears and the fur is smaller.
Are Mexican gray wolves born blind and deaf?
yes and when they grow older the can hear a wolves sound from 10 miles away.
Will you die if a wolf bites you?
Well, not exactly. It really depends on where the wolf bites you. If the wolf bit your heart, throat, one of your temples, or any other vital areas. If it breaks a vital vein, your done for. But if you get bit on the ankle of something, you'll be fine as long as you get the infection out.
I do believe they live wild in Ontario. Many wolves seem to thrive in Canada, whereas in the USA, there are very few wild wolves left.
What are eucalyptus behavioral adaptation?
eucalypts are a genus of trees and do not have 'behaviour'. There are 300 species within the genus and are found in a range of habitats from coasts to deserts, tropical rainforests to alpine areas. As a result they have adapted to the environment with various features not limited to a deep root system to access water, irregular flowering, hard seed cases, epicormic growth from damaged bark, waxy leaves etc
What sound does a red wolf make?
Wolves howl, bark, and hiss. Although howling is generally the most stereotype sound associated with wolves, hissing is very common, especially among the stronger of wolf packs.
Wolves also whimper, whine, bark, woof, growl, and snarl. Whimpering is to show submission. Often mother wolves woof when a intruder enters their birthing den. Wolves will growl to pose a threat or state rights. And yes, wolves howl. They howl, usually, to locate a lost member of a pack. They will howl just before a hunt and after a kill, too.
When did wolves last live in Britain?
wolves were made extinct in England in 1486 then wolves were made extinct in Scotland in 1743 and wolves in Ireland were made extinct in 1776
What animals are descended from wolves?
If you go back a million years, today's wolves are probably all descendants of an earlier member of the species, canis dirus, the Dire Wolf. If you go back 2 to10 million years, the wolves likely have descended from an early mammal called Canis lepophagus.
What is the average size of a female wolf?

Gray wolves howl to assemble the pack (usually before and after hunts), to pass on an alarm (particularly at a den site), to locate each other during a storm or unfamiliar territory and to communicate across great distances.
The red wolf is in the same family as the grey wolf but it is quite smaller. Their sleep pattern consists of hunting, feeding, sleeping, then waking to feed again.
What are the wolf's natural enemies?
BEars, Cayotes, Foxes, big birds... all can be seen as enimies of the wolf. However, though nearly ANY carnivore is a wolves enime, hardly any animal would attack a full grown wolf other then humans and dogs. Not even bears would attack one less a desperate wolf attacks a feed bear first.
Contrary to popular believe, Wolves and bear RARLY fight, let alone if one has a carcuss or not. Usually, the wolf would wait, and only aproach the carcuss once the bear is finished, and a bear wont usually get the chance to eat the carcuss if the wolf killed it, as a wolf eats in a pack, then 'cashes the food'.
Every animal -except hunters- give the wolf a wide berth. However, any animal that eats meat WILL attack, kill, and eat a wolf pup if they can. That is why every carnivore is a wolves enimy, epecially when there are pups nearby
It is a very difficult job to raise a wolf by yourself. If it is as a pet (which I don't recommend) you have to take the pup from the mother between one and two weeks after it's born. It should stay with it's mother for at least one week, however, to make sure it gets the most important milk from the mother.
Then you need to feed it with milk every 2 hours (I think). The most easy thing to do would be to put it with a dog, if you have one, that has puppies at the time, but make sure that they get milk, don't push away the other pups, and also don't hurt the other dogs (mom or pup).
When they get old enough you need an enclosure big enough to let them run around, but still not too big (since they are still small).
As they get older (one and a half year maybe) they will need a big enclosure so they can run around.
A big must is to raise more than one wolf, otherwise they will be lonely. The wolf is a pack animal after all :)
What can you do to help endangered wolves?
what people are doing to help save the red wolf is there are recovery programs that take in red wolves and breed them and release them into the wild. there are now more than 100 red wolves in the wild. some websites say to adopt a red wolf... i advise you not to because wild animals always end up turning on you and snapping and bitting at you. let the recovery programs do the breeding because it is working. the population of the red wolves are going back up little by little.
thats all for today. bye!

How is wood converted to timber?
Conversion of wood is whereby the log/tree is altered to create planks, timbers, or other desired elements. The conversion of wood is through tangential or radially splitting of the log, then perhaps being worked further to create the desired end product.
Teach people that the gray wolf is an animal that will not kill a human just because it lives in the wild and that no healthy wolf has ever attacked or killed anyone.
Edit by someone else: This is not true. Perfectly healthy wolves (albeit starving ones) have attacked humans before. In the past 100 years in the USA, there have been two recorded killings by grey wolves, one in 2005 and one in 2011.
You can protect the grey wolf by donating to charities that protect them.

P.S
Wolfy Wolves is not a good wolf pack name. sorry! Here are a few other cool ideas: -lunar pack -solar pack -eclipse pack -you could try different names based on the cycles of the moon or the environment that your pack lives in or what they value. Example: -crescent pack -tide pack -elk pack
What type of job should someone go into if they want to work will premature babies?

Are coyotes more vicious than wolves?
No no way. Coyotes could maybe put up a fight against you. But a wolf would tear a coyote up. wolves have a bite force per pound more then 1,000 pounds. Coyotes could be mean but in a wolfs case. Not close!
Why were the gray wolves taken off the endangered species list?
Once the grey wolf is off the Endangered Species list people will begin to hunt them. This, in tern, will put the ecosystem out of balance. Elk and coyote populations will rise and plants will be eaten by elk, and coyotes will eat all the pronghorn fawns. Bears will have trouble getting meat and eagles wont be able to feed from wolf kills.
What is the most common relative to the wolf?
The domestic dog and the dingo are both subspecies of the wolf.
