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.

What are three types of family from the wolf?
a German Sheperd and a Husky are one type of Wolf. All types of Fox and the last one is A Coyote. And the first type of Wolf on Earth was a Wolf. That is really amazing i think.
It is possible but not probable. Wolves are generally not easy to catch and most humans who kill wolves do it for other reasons than the need for food. Wolves are hunted for their fur, they are hunted for killing livestock, and they are hunted as for trophies but they are not generally hunted for their meat.
Every single one of these uses are fine as long as you have a tag, (what excuses the tag, is if they are going after your livestock).
Now poaching is hunting without a tag or a valid exception.
Hunting for fur is fine! trappers have done it since settlement! if they kill livestock, then I'd shoot the wolf TOO! It's not poaching!
If your going for trophies? If you have a wolf tag, who cares, because then your doing it legally and won't kill over the amount. If you just go haywire and kill many then its poaching.

Where in Idaho do gray wolves live?
Grey wolves occupy most of mountainous Idaho, which leaves out only the 'desert' are from Boise to Twin Falls. In fact, just 2 days ago wolves killed 13 sheep very near Boise, apparently just for fun.
Here in northern Idaho, wolves are all over, and occasionally killing sheep. About an hour north of where I live, a month ago a guy was driving home after working all night. As he passed the little enclosure at the highway where his road is, he saw several wolves watching the schoolkids from the edge of the forest, about 20 years away.
Scary.

What does a maned wolf look like?
The Maned Wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus) closely resembles the Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes), but the two are of an entirely different genus (note the name), and the Maned Wolf is much larger than the Red Fox.
In addition to this, the Maned Wolf also has a black mane (hence the name), which can be erected when the Wolf feels threatened - to enlarge it's profile, or when showing aggression.

Why are bigger females attracted to smaller men?
I don't think that bigger females are attracted to smaller men, but they are so tall or big-boned and the average man is 5' 10" - 5' 11" that it appears that way. It's no different than saying "Why is that guy so attracted to tiny girls when he's well over 6 feet tall." You simply fall in love and size really has nothing to do with it. My niece is 21 years old and 6 feet tall; very large boned, but great figure and statuesque, yet she is still young enough not to appreciate how gorgeous she is and if I say anything I simply get "Awww you're my aunt and you'll always say that about me." It bothers me to see her slouch around when she is out or, her mother has told me that she often will just sit in a club with friends and refuse to get up and walk around if the place is well lit because she feels like a mammoth woman. Some men are the ones that like very large well-rounded women and choose the woman in their lives, not the other way around.

Where do wolves keep their prey?
Wolves are very intelligent animals. They hunt as quick as possible, biting on the throat of their prey in order to kill it straight away. When they have hunted, they take their findings to their 'hide-outs'. Wolves dig a hole in the ground underneath a secretive place (i.e a bush) and bury their findings. When they have buried their food, they curl up on top of the hole to watch over it. If the finding is meat, wolves do not tend to hide it, because it will be eaten by maggots or flies. If it is a bone, they havent a problem. However, this is only if their finding is a big one (a Stag, etc). If their finding is small like a rabbit, they will try to eat it as quick as possible to avoid being preyed on. If they have children, the food will go straight to their babies, as wolves are loyal animals.
