Read More Go to Site Arctic Wolf Votes:0 Arctic Wolf Canis lupus arctos Smaller and lighter than the southern wolves, the arctic wolf ranges year-round over most of the islands in Canada's Arctic. Roaming singly or in small packs, wolves hunt co-operatively using strategy to outwit the swift caribou, their major prey species. A large wolf can bring down and kill an adult caribou with a single crushing bite to the neck. Survival of pups depends on food supply and many die young, thus, wolf numbers are adjusted to fit the availability of prey. Though wolves were once shot on sight at Arctic bases, now only the Inuit hunters kill them. The furs are sold or used for parka trim. Home Discover Nature!

Historically, most Native Americans revered gray wolves, trying to emulate their cunning and hunting abilities. However, wolves became nearly extinct in the lower 48 states in the early part of the 20th century because settlers believed wolves caused widespread livestock losses. Constantly persecuted and targeted by large scale predator eradication programs sponsored by the federal government, wolves have been pursued with more passion and determination than any other animal in U.S. history.
