Answer 1

The Arctic Wolf (Canis lupus arctos) is a wild dog that lives in the Canadian Arctic. This wolf is a subspecies of the gray wolf and is sometimes called the tundra wolf. It is a fast-running carnivore (a meat-eater) that lives alone or in packs of about 6 wolves. The Arctic Wolf lives about 10-15 years in the wild; it lives about 20 years in captivity.
Howling: Wolves howl as a signal to other wolves, telling of the beginning and ending of a hunt, of a wolf separated from its pack, as a warning to other wolf packs, and simply for the fun of it.

Anatomy: Arctic Wolves are smaller than other wolves and have long, thick white fur. Adults are about 3 ft (0.9 m) long plus a 1 ft (30 cm) long tail. Like other wolves, they have strong jaws with sharp teeth, including long canine teeth which tear flesh. Wolves have very good eyesight, acute hearing, and a keen sense of smell which help them hunt.

Hunting and Diet: Wolves hunt in packs and often prey upon animals that are much larger that they are. They mostly eat caribou, and they kill their prey with a devastating bite on the neck. Wolves almost never attack people. They swallow food in large chunks, barely chewing it. Wolves can eat up to 20 pounds (9 kg) of meat at one meal. When they return from the hunt, wolves regurgitate some of the food for the hungry pups.


The Gray Wolf (also known as the Timber Wolf) is a wild dog that lives in packs (groups). Gray wolves that live in the treeless plains of the far north are called Tundra Wolves or Arctic Wolves. The gray wolf is a fast-running carnivore (meat-eater). After almost going extinct, it is now only found in Alaska, Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
Howling: Wolves howl as a signal to other wolves, telling of the beginning and ending of a hunt, of a wolf separated from its pack, as a warning to other wolf packs, and simply for the fun of it.

Anatomy: Gray Wolves have strong jaws with sharp teeth, including long canine teeth which tear flesh. Adults are about 4 1/2 feet long and weigh about 80 pounds. They have very good eyesight, acute hearing, and a keen sense of smell.

Hunting and Diet: Wolves hunt in packs and often prey upon animals that are much larger that they are. They mostly eat hoofed mammals, like elk, deer, moose, sheep, and bison, but will eat almost anything, including birds, fish, snakes, lizards, and fruit. Wolves almost never attack people. They swallow food in large chunks, barely chewing it. Wolves can eat up to 20 pounds (9 kg) of meat at one meal. When they return from the hunt, wolves regurgitate some of the food for the hungry pups.

Answer 2

All canines will shed ineffective epidermis cells. in case you meant laying off fur, all canines shed, aside from hairless canines. There are some breeds that shed below others, including: Poodles Portuguese Water canines Schnauzers Yorkies Shih Tzu Wheaten Terriers Cairn Terriers lots of the terriers do not purchase into the myth that one and all poodle mixes do not shed. If a poodle is blended with yet another breed that doesn't shed plenty, then the consequent mixed breed domestic dogs are possibly to be minimum shedders. even although, if a poodle is blended with a intense-laying off dogs, including a Golden Retriever or Lab, the consequent mixed breed domestic dogs are very possibly to shed. Such mixes, enormously Golden/Poodle mixes, are a groomer's worst nightmare.
