There are many stories and myths about wolves, and this book will give us the true facts. Wolves look a lot like dogs, and that is because they are related to dogs. They look a lot like German Shepherds.The author, Emma Child, has written another one of her marvelous books about Amazing Animals. Even an modern person like me can learn a great deal about the animals in our world. Wolves can be found in more areas if the world than any mother mammal, and that includes humans. Wolves live on average 13 years. They inhabit Canada and Alaska for the most part, but can also be found in great quantities in New England and northern New York State. Wolves live in dens, and when a mommy wolf is pregnant she stays in the same den shed was born in until she has her babies. Most wolves have between 3-4 baby wolves. They travel in packs, with a father wolf, mother wolf and baby wolves, and maybe a stray or two. So, really, packs are just families of wolves. There are many different kinds of wolves, grey wolves, snow wolves and even Florida wolves. Wolves are not go be feared, they will not hurt you unless they are attacked or they are ill.There are so many things to be learned about wolves, and this book gives us a wonderful look into the lives if wolves.
