Wolves
A carnivore related to the jackal and domestic dog, two species of wolves are recognized. One is C. lupus, the gray or timber wolf, which was once widely distributed in North America, Europe, and Asia. The other is Canis lupus rufus, the red wolf, which now only occurs in northeastern North Carolina and on St. Vincent's Island off the Gulf Coast of Florida.

Do wolves let other wolves join their pack?
I've seen 1 documentary where a Alpha female was not able to reproduce and was starving the other members of the pack and was found killed, which is believed to be by its own pack. I would imagine this cannot be a natural act as survival requires members in harmony.
Wolves survive by living in packs. They hunt togther, providing food to the entire pack.
The often travel behind elk herds during winter when they migrate, to ensure they still have food to eat. They also fight off enemies and mark territory to warn other animals that they are residing there.
How did wolves become extinct in Scotland?
Scottish wolves became extinct because they were causing destruction and were an nuisance for farmers. The wolves were then hunted and killed, as years went by wolves began to die out until they were eventually extinct. Since then, no one has seen a wolf in Scotland.
How many tundra wolves are in the world?
== == ----------------------------------
I believe there is more than that. Tundra and Gray wolves are well-populated. The Red wolf, however, is critically endangered. There might be more, but the only endangered wolf species I know is the Red wolf. I'd say maybe 1000-2500 if possible.

There are some wolves that can indeed climb trees. It has nothing to do with breed or types so there's no reason to get more specific with your question. The fact of the matter is, some wolves are not as uncertain as others, they tend to be more nimble and lithe, and likely climbed larger logs and such when they were pups. If you do a bit of searching on the internet you'll find that there are images of wolves in trees. another reason some climb is to be higher so they can get a better lay of the land, at least this is how it was explained to me on one site. Either way, the simple answer is yes, some wolves can climb, and never let anyone tell you differently.
Where do the wolves live in the tundra?
They follow their prey - ruminants like elk, deer, moose, and even bison: At Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming USA, a wolf pack is "specializing" in bison. At night, the wolves curl up together to stay warm.
Special adaptations of a gray wolf?
Like all animals, gray wolves have far too many adaptations to list them all. Even something as simple as blood's ability to clot is an adaptation. However, some unique adaptations of wolves include:
- Keen senses. They have an excellent sense of smell, great hearing, and good vision, even at night, all of which help them to locate prey and threats.
- Wolves live in packs, which makes them more effective hunters. They can also work together to protect each other and their cubs from enemies, such as bears and mountain lions.
- Wolves that live in cold climates, such as Canada and Alaska, have thick coats to stay warm. Additionally, they can decrease blood flow to the skin and thus heat loss during cold conditions. The pads on the bottom of each foot often come in contact with snow. During such conditions, the footpads are kept just a little warmer than the point where they would freeze, preventing frostbite but not causing the wolf to lose valuable heat to the snow.
- Wolves are fast runners. Unlike most animals, wolves are good endurance runners, too, and are able to chase prey rapidly for up to 20 minutes. This allows them to hunt by running their prey to exhaustion.
Gray Wolves live in the rocky mountains.
No that is not the case everywhere. Gray wovles also live in the wild near Minnesota and Wisconson.
Gray wolves are found in North America, Europe, Asia, and the arctic.
they live in Antarctica
Gray wolves still live in Alaska, Canada and Asia. There are few remaining wolves in Europe as they have been hunted to near extinction.
North America and Russia.
gray wolves live in Alaska
Normally in some sort of forest(any, really).
Not all mammals have external, or visible tails.
While not all mammals have external tails, they do, however, have vestigial tails, or remnants of a tail which can be seen in its skeleton. Examples of mammals with vestigial tails are humans (the coccyx), apes, wombats and koalas, just to name a few.
How far away can a wolf's howl be heard?
Loud enough to carry a mile or more on a still night!
In terms of decibels, if you stand next to a howling wolf it's slightly quieter than a pneumatic drill - 90 to 100dB would be a rough estimate.
(NB: I'm a volunteer at the UK Wolf Conservation Trust so frequently get to hear wolves howling).
Their diet is mainly fish, but they will eat birds if they can catch them. Although otters primarily feed on fish they do take the occasional waterbird (along with chicks and eggs), amphibeans and small mammals such as baby rabbits
What kind of family does wolves have?
Wolves run in a pack. To every pack there is an Alpha male and an Alpha female. These are the only two individuals allowed to mate. All members of the pack care for the pups.
wolves have a back. there is the alpha and his mate - normally a compitition for both places- and the pack members.
Why do wolves howl to the moon?
wolves don't specifically howl to the moon. They don't think "hey there's a moon! I'm going to howl to it".
People normally think they howl to the moon because they usually howl at night. But that's because wolves are nocturnal. They are awake during the day time as well and do sleep at night sometimes. But they normally hunt at night. This, i do not know why.
Wolves howl to communicate and when they are hunting communicating is very important.
There is no species called a snow wolf. If you are referring to the Arctic wolf, it is found on Melville Island (Northwest Territories and Nunavut) and Ellesmere Island. There is also the tundra wolf that is found on barren grounds of the Arctic Coast region from near Point Barrow eastward toward Hudson Bay and probably northwards to the Arctic Archipelago.
What is the gray wolf's behavior?
Howling is a primary function of the gray wolf. It is used to reassembles a pack or to alert others of a position
Grey wolves can track prey for days, following scent trails of prey. They usually live in groups called packs, hunting, breeding, and travelling together. When hunting they act as one, taking down their prey with ease. These are just a few of the behavioral adaptations grey wolves have.

Grey wolves live in Alaska, British Columbia, and a bit of the USA so they live in colder weather.
How long does it take for the wolf to have puppies after you mate on wolf quest?
well once you get a mate the game is finished. the second bit of the game is coming out and you will be able to have pups then. but it was coming out in august but they put it back they have held it back till october or early november. and I have been dying to play it lol its based on raising your own pups and your mate in the first episode will be in the second episode with your pups.
How do wolves choose a pack leader?
Wolves in a pack make decisions by the two alphas getting together and making a decision, then it is run through the betas. If the betas decide yes then it is decided, if they decide no then it is up to the deltas. If the deltas decide yes then it's final, if they decide no then it's off to the rest of the pack. If they decide yes it's yes, if they decide no, it's no. If half decide yes, half decide no then it goes to the omegas to decide. What the omegas decide on is final and the last decision but it is only on rare occasions that it is left up to the omegas.
No, Gray Wolves are multicellular, just like all other plants and animals you can see with the naked eye.
