Wolf that lives in the desert!?:Mexican Grey Wolf

The Mexican grey wolves are believed to be related
to the domestic dog. They took 20,000
Close to dog
years to evolved and they lived in the Northern Hemisphere. They currently live in the South-western Deserts.




They once lived all together, but because of human persecution and habitat destruction it has been eliminated from much of its original range.




The Mexican grey wolf is actually critically endangered. There was once thousands of animals throughout south-eastern Arizona, southern New Mexico, western Texas and northern Mexico.

Eurasian wolf


Eurasian wolves are shorter and they have more denser fur
than the common. This does not mean that the wolves are
less aggressive than other wolves.







Eurasian Wolf
Naturally, females usually about twenty per cent smaller than males, like in humans males are naturally stronger than females.






The wolves have a white, cream, red, grey and black, type of coat and sometimes with all colours combined.






These wolves have around 6 pups and sometimes 1 or 2 dies. These wolves have an interesting den. The den is dug among bushes or rocks and can just be a hole in the ground that's near shelter.




They eat/hunt chamois, saiga, wild boar, red deer, roe deer and livestock.




In rural villages, many people have lots of waste bins open. These leads to many wolves and stray dogs to feed there.

Tundra Wolf











The tundra wolf are the type of the wolves that live in cold areas around the world, that are also know as arctic wolves. Because of the wolves having a white, brownish coat, they are vulnerable to the fur trade, where they get killed and skinned. The fur is usually sold for twice as much. This makes t





Tundra wolves also have larger feet than gray wolves. This helps spread their weight evenly while walking on snowy ground.
