Have A Howling Good Time
Wolves live in diverse and changing environments. Preparation and care of pups is fairly consistent around the world as is pup development. The following timeline provides information on the development of various physical and behavioral tools that wolves have for survival.

Wolves are probably one of the most misunderstood creatures we have ever encountered. They hunt in packs, have families and stay together, protect one another and help keep the balance in nature. And yet they are hunted as vermin and indiscriminately slaughtered year after year because they encroach on farm land.
Afterall, we are the ones who encroach on THEIR land. They should be left alone to allow them to be fruitful and be as one within their homeland.
